Prime Minister Narendra Modi became the first world leader to surpass 100 million followers on Instagram, more than doubling the follower count of US President Donald Trump, who holds the second spot with 43.2 million. Modi's follower base exceeds the combined total of the next five major global leaders. Within India, he leads significantly ahead of other politicians like Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. This milestone coincides with Modi's official visit to Israel, where he was awarded the Speaker of the Knesset Medal for his leadership in strengthening India-Israel relations.
