She is followed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Twitter.

She was caught by some of the women protesters after they identified her as YouTuber Kapoor.
The incident led to a commotion at Shaheen Bagh, a senior police official said.
The woman was taken to Sarita Vihar police station where her identity was ascertained, he said.
She was questioned and let off later, he added.
Some of the protesters alleged that Kapoor was recording videos on her mobile phone.
In a statement issued after the incident, Kapoor claimed that on February 3, when she had gone for a TV news debate at Jamia Millia Islamia University, they were chased out in less than 20 minutes and people were not willing to talk to them.
Kapoor alleged that after a woman journalist of a new channel was recently 'manhandled' at Shaheen Bagh, she decided to don a burqa so that 'they (protesters) may be more comfortable to speak' to her.
"But once my identity was revealed they manhandled me," she added.
Kapoor said she had gone to the site for a 'story' for her Youtube channel.
