Congratulations PM @NarendraModi on being the most followed world leader! Musk, also the owner of X Corp., formerly Twitter, said in a post on X on Friday.

Prime Minister Modi has 100.1 million followers on X.

 

Earlier this week, when this milestone was reached, Modi said on X: 'A hundred million on @X! Happy to be on this vibrant medium and cherish the discussion, debate, insights, people's blessings, constructive criticism and more.'

Looking forward to an equally engaging time in the future as well, Modi said.

Among other heads of government with a large following are US President Joe Biden (38.1 million) and Turkiye's Recep Tayyip Erdogan (21.5 million).

Prime Minister Modi is also an influential presence on YouTube and Instagram with nearly 25 million subscribers and more than 91 million followers respectively.
