Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to social media platform X today to celebrate the remarkable strides India has made in technology and digital innovation, marking the 11th anniversary of the Digital India initiative.

In a tweet, PM Modi acknowledged that India’s youth were the driving force behind the nation’s rise to prominence in the world of technology. “We are making incredible progress in innovation and technological application, driven by India’s youth. It is also strengthening our efforts to become self-reliant and a global tech powerhouse,” he wrote, using the hashtag #11YearsOfDigitalIndia.

The tweet was accompanied by a repost from MyGovIndia, which highlighted India’s digital evolution “from digital deserts to a data-driven democracy.” Titled “How Is India Becoming the World’s Next Tech Powerhouse?”, the campaign showcases how, under PM Modi’s leadership, India has transitioned into a digitally empowered society and knowledge economy.

The post also featured a visual with the bold question: “How Is India Becoming The World’s Next Tech Powerhouse?”, alongside PM Modi’s image, and emphasized the role of visionary governance in this transformation. Launched in 2015, the Digital India mission has aimed to bridge the digital divide, improve governance through technology, and build a strong digital infrastructure for inclusive growth.
