Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a strong advocate of utilising social media for connecting with the masses. He has often asked his members of parliament to be active on the NaMo app.
The Namo app groups for MPs were created as the Prime Minister wanted these elected representatives to discuss and share thoughts on important issues and policy decisions.
On the contrary, some of the MPs, like Jugal Kishore Sharma from Jammu, have decided to confine their presence on the NaMo app to only wishing good morning and goodnight to everyone.
Prime Minister Modi had, in the past, reprimanded MPs for being inactive on the forum after which the group has now seen a spurt in activity.
