"How does social media use its own platform to ensure that the voice of the marginalized is heard by government, which otherwise sometimes is not heard"
marginalized? Those are the millions who don't have access to the internet, let alone social networks (let alone English proficiency...). I don't know what they are upto, but usually what they (Indian Politicians) say can never be taken at face value.
Hmm. It seems ViewText can't handle simple character set conversion.
It also doesn't decode html entities in anchor tag href's before fixing them up and uri escaping them for it's redirector, breaking every single external link on my website. That's ok though, I blocked that site from accessing mine ages ago for this reason, and because they didn't fix it when I reported it, and because they fake their robots UA to be Internet Explorer, and because they ignore robots.txt.
EDIT: Regarding the charset conversion issue. This doesn't really show up on IE and Chrome. Basically, there are numerous places where there are double quotes in the original article. When viewing the viewtext version with Firefox, the characters are mangled. In Chrome and IE, they are simply not displayed. The original page is ISO-8859-1 and is described as such by both the HTTP response header, and the Content-type meta tag in the head.
