PM Modi To Handover His Social Media Accounts Inspiring Women On Women’s Day 2025

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has unveiled an exciting plan to celebrate International Women’s Day 2025 in a big way. During his 119th Mann Ki Baat address on Sunday, he announced that he will hand over his social media accounts—including X and Instagram—to inspiring women for a day on March 8. This unique move aims to shine a spotlight on women who have made a mark in various fields across India.

“I’m dedicating this Women’s Day to our women power,” Modi said. “These incredible women will share their stories and achievements through my social media platforms.” With millions of followers, his accounts will become a powerful stage for these women to inspire the nation.

In his speech, Modi praised the vital role women play in shaping India. He quoted Hansa Mehta, a key figure in drafting the Indian Constitution, to highlight how women embody strength and knowledge. “All forms of wisdom reflect the power of women,” he said, stressing the need to honor and uplift them. This initiative builds on his past efforts, like the 2020 Women’s Day handover, when seven women achievers took over his accounts.

The PM is inviting women from all walks of life—be it education, science, arts, or social work—to join in. “If you’ve excelled in your field or know someone who has, this is your chance,” he urged. Interested women can apply via a special form on the NaMo App. Those selected will get to post about their journeys, challenges, and successes, reaching Modi’s massive online audience, which includes over 90 million followers on X alone.

On March 8, these women will take the reins of Modi’s X, Instagram, and possibly other platforms. They’ll share their stories in their own words, offering a personal glimpse into their lives. It’s not just about recognition—it’s a chance to motivate millions. In 2020, women like Sneha Mohandoss, who fights hunger, and Malvika Iyer, a disability rights advocate, used Modi’s accounts to spread their messages, proving the impact of this platform.

This isn’t the first time Modi has handed over his digital space. In 2020, his Women’s Day gesture went viral, with netizens calling it a “brilliant” way to celebrate “Nari Shakti” (women power). With his huge following—among the highest for any world leader—his accounts offer unmatched reach. Posts from X today show fans already buzzing about the 2025 edition, with many praising his focus on women’s empowerment.
