Whatever he does, the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has a unique style of presenting things or matters to the public on social media!
On account of the International Women’s Day 2020 on March 09, 2020, the Prime Minister signed off from all his social accounts and handed over them to the inspirational women.
Resultant, his social media accounts Twitter, Facebook and Instagram buzzed with empowering and inspiring stories of many Indian women achievers reaching out to millions of his followers.
On various matters of hunger, sanitation and sustainable development, disability, inclusion and financial wellbeing, the achievers took #ModiFollowers through their journey from overcoming odds to emerging as changemakers.
This activity, not only created a buzz with lot of retweets, shares and likes, it eventually contributed to the follower count of the achievers’ social media accounts.
“India has outstanding women achievers in all parts of the nation. These women have done great work in a wide range of sectors. Their struggles and aspirations motivate millions. Let us keep celebrating the achievements of such women and learning from them,” Modi tweeted.
Giving the stage to the seven women achievers, Narendra made the following tweet:
Greetings on International Women’s Day! We salute the spirit and accomplishments of our Nari Shakti.
As I’d said a few days ago, I’m signing off. Through the day, seven women achievers will share their life journeys and perhaps interact with you through my social media accounts.— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) March 8, 2020
Seven Women Achievers
1) Sneha Mohandoss, Founder of Food Bank
You heard of food for thought. Now, it’s time for action and a better future for our poor. We have over 20 chapters and have impacted several people with our work. We also initiated activities like mass cooking, cooking marathons and breastfeeding awareness drives.
We all pulled out a massive reach on our ongoing success and saying loud to the world that every woman is born achiever. Congratulations
Dr Malvika Iyer
Ms Arifa
Ms Veena Devi
Ms Kalavati Devi
Ms Vijaya Pawar
Ms Kalpana Ramesh for inspiring our fellow women’s. #SheInspiresUs #IWD— Sneha Mohandoss (@snehamohandoss) March 8, 2020
2) Malvika Iyer, bomb blast survivor (at the age of 13) and women rights activist
I worked and went on to do a PhD. Giving up is never an option. We need show people with disabilities as role models instead of showing them as weak and dependent.
I’m signing off from my account now and I’ll be tweeting from the honourable Prime Minister of India Shri @narendramodi ‘s account.
Thank you for your love and support. Happy Women’s Day! #SheInspiresUs https://t.co/fl3QjyZ5yQ— Dr. Malvika Iyer (@MalvikaIyer) March 8, 2020
3) Arifa Jan, a young Entrepreneur and Women Artisan Supporter in Kashmir
I always dreamt of reviving the traditional crafts of Kashmir because this is a means to empower local women. I saw the condition of women artisans and so began working to revive Numdah craft.
