Bangalore: The latest entrant in the social networking site Facebook is none other than India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. Singh who is known to be not so net savvy and does not even keep a cell phone has been regularly updating his profile on Facebook.
Young parliamentarians like Rahul Gandhi maintain profiles on Facebook, reports Economic Times. In fact, most politicians including leader of opposition L K Advani, write personal blogs.
India's Minister of State for External Affairs, Shashi Tharoor who has a Twitter page says, "What amused me is the number of politicians who have come up to me and expressed curiosity about it from both sides of the aisle... opposition as well as government. In fact the Prime Minister asked me what this is all about... He wanted to know what Twitter was. So there is a lot of curiosity."
