Breaking records, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has hit 100 million Instagram followers, outpacing all world leaders and becoming the first to do so. NDA figures on Thursday lauded the feat as a clear indicator of his worldwide fame, constant public interaction, and rapport with the youth.
In the decade since 2014, Modi’s Instagram has become a go-to source for authentic updates on India’s progress, international relations, and everyday leadership moments. This strategic digital footprint has connected him directly with audiences in India and abroad, amplifying his message exponentially.
‘PM Modi’s global recognition shines through this achievement,’ BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal asserted. He credited Modi’s drive to transform India into an economic powerhouse and cultural beacon, which resonates deeply with followers.
BJP spokesperson Tuhin Sinha drew parallels to celebrity status but emphasized Modi’s sustained rise over 20 years. ‘The youth’s acceptance of his progressive outlook is the real story here,’ Sinha highlighted.
JD(U)’s Neeraj Kumar viewed it as a digital-era victory, perfect for a generation glued to screens. ‘His international trustworthiness keeps the numbers climbing,’ he noted. Madhav Anand stressed Modi’s planetary popularity, making follower growth a given.
Beyond Instagram, Modi’s X following stands at 106.2 million, Facebook at over 54 million—leading the pack. This multi-platform mastery positions him as the blueprint for digital diplomacy, engaging citizens like never before.
