'Stop spreading hatred on Social Media' - Modi to his staunch backers

Prime Minister, Narendra Modi who is known for his Social Media savviness besides his oratorical skills and decision making guts, urged his supporters to stop using abusive language and be positive. Mr. Modi took the advantage of the platform in last year elections and to long spread his initiatives and policies.

Modi met the nearly 100 staunch backers on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram yesterday at home. He preached the influencers that spreading hatred comments will land will finish the exciting medium. "If all the abuses I receive are printed, that paper will cover the entire Taj Mahal," he is reported to have said to them, while asking them to refrain from responding to negative comments with harsh words.

The PM allegedly said that though many badmouthed about him on Twitter, the Chaiwala-turned-Prime Minister had not blocked a single user so far. Mr Modi has 13 million followers on Twitter.

The meeting was held hours before the launch of his Digital India initiative, which seeks to connect 2, 50,000 villages by 2019. At a sports stadium in Delhi last evening, India's top industrialists, including the Ambani brothers pledged over 70 billion dollars to back the campaign to provide mobile governance and universal phone connectivity to empower rural India.

After e-learning into m-learning, now e-governance to m-governance

While the ever changing technology and trends sped up e-learning into m-learning, Modi Government’s Digital India initiative is believed to transform E-Governance to M-Governance (M is not Modi, Its Mobile).

The PM described Digital India as a roadmap to change India's future. "Earlier, a child used to playfully wrench your reading glasses", today, he reaches for your phone. We need to understand this change or the world will pass us by", he said.

Digital India also hopes to create jobs and ramp up investments in manufacturing.
