Following up on the push by PM Narendra Modi, asking all his ministers and ministries to join Twitter, two more union ministries have debuted on the platform. The Ministry of Textiles and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare will be tweeting from their handles @MoHFW_INDIA & @TexMinIndia.
Twitter has emerged as the platform of choice for the NDA Govt to communicate with the citizens of India with the PM leading the charge with his personal handle (@narendramodi), complimented by his office’s official handle (@PMOIndia), to share updates.
The Prime Minister’s cabinet is flocking to Twitter as well, with nearly 40 ministers and ministries already sharing daily updates with their followers about the goings on in their respective ministries.
