New Delhi: Indian PM Narendra Modi added one more feather to his crown when he emerged as the most followed active politician on Twitter.

It happened after Twitter suspended the account of outgoing US President Donald Trump following the siege on the Capitol Hill by pro-Trump people.

Modi's account is currently followed by 64.7 million people.

PM Modi currently has 64.7 million followers, while Trump had 88.7 million followers before his account was suspended. Former US President Barack Obama, however, remains the most followed politician on Twitter with 127.9 million followers, reports India Today.

US President elect Joe Biden's Twitter account is followed by 23.3 million netizens.
