The Mess of one-sided sponsored Political posts on Facebook

At time of ongoing JNU conflict and with tempers running really high i have been seeing many sponsored posts related to news articles and editorials on my FB timeline. All these posts were supporting similar sort of opinion which is against view of government of India. I would just like to make sure that I am not much aware about how these sponsored posts work and whether these posts were occurring on my Timeline only or of many others too, moreover i didn't find a single sponsored post supporting government views. let me know if you had find any on your FB timeline. Out of these many posts were from Scroll which looks like replacement of notorious Tehelka and to put facts straight I don't follow any of these pages on FB. 

Some of those posts were clearly on JNU controversy, some mocking Modi, some mocking whoever looked like supporting Modi. Why would you have to boost your post if you are so sure about your ideology and way of thinking? 
Talk about austerity and then spend money to promote your thinking to masses ?
