On International Women’s Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid heartfelt tributes to the ‘Nari Shakti’ (women power), highlighting his government’s continued dedication to advancing women’s empowerment. Modi took to social media to express his gratitude, sharing, “We bow to our Nari Shakti on #WomensDay! Our government has always worked for empowering women, reflected in our schemes and programmes.”
In line with his previous initiatives, the Prime Minister also announced that women achievers from various sectors would take over his social media accounts for the day, providing them with a platform to inspire others. He wrote, “As promised, my social media properties will be taken over by women who are making a mark in diverse fields.”

I am @chessvaishali and I am thrilled to be taking over our PM Thiru @narendramodi Ji’s social media properties and that too on #WomensDay. As many of you would know, I play chess and I feel very proud to be representing our beloved country in many tournaments. pic.twitter.com/LlYTmqE2MQ
This initiative isn’t a first. Back in 2020, Modi allowed seven women achievers to operate his social media accounts, once again promoting their incredible contributions and offering a global stage for their stories.
