Following Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Instagram Reels, Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi has launched an ‘Ask Me Anything’ session on Instagram to engage with students and Gen Z.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Announcing the initiative on X, Gandhi invited young people to ask him questions via his Instagram Stories, saying he would answer as many as possible.<\/p>\n

PM Modi’s reels and reach to youth<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This step is part of the increasing efforts by political leaders to connect with the youth. Last month, Prime Minister Narendra Modi advised Union Ministers to be active on Instagram.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He asked the ministers to create reels and interact with the youth, as this platform is very popular among young people. The PM’s advice came at a time when the central government was facing student protests over the alleged exam paper leak controversy.<\/p>\n

Increased importance of social media among youth<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Political parties’ focus on Gen-Z has increased after the protests at Jantar Mantar in Delhi. There, thousands of students and job aspirants protested over alleged irregularities in the examination.<\/p>\n

These protests were primarily organized through Instagram and other social media platforms, with a large number of young people participating, and they remained a major topic of online discussion.<\/p>\n

Gen-Z’s language also heard in Parliament<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The impact of digital culture in politics is also being seen inside the parliament. During the Monsoon session, many MPs and ministers have used internet slang and Gen-Z words in their speeches.<\/p>\n

Videos featuring words like ‘delulu’ and ‘aura’ have gone viral on social media. This shows that digital culture is now becoming a part of political discourse.<\/p>\n
