Since then, his popularity has increased year after year. A survey was conducted in relation to popularity last year. In that survey, PM Modi had joined three popular leaders of the world.

About social media, PM Modi says on almost all the forums that this is a medium through which we can understand the feelings of common people. There is no administrative hurdle in this. In this regard, she had mentioned the former External Affairs Minister, late Sushma Swaraj, that during her time only through Twitter she had helped countless people about whom she could not get information from any other administrative channel. In today's changing times, this medium is playing an important role in bringing the government and common people closer to each other.
