Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reached out to a whopping 25 lakh people in Karnataka through several video interactions on his app, a BJP functionary claimed today, asserting that he is the only global leader to have adopted this unique communication tool.

Modi today concluded his interactions- which happened in the run-up to the Karnataka assembly polls scheduled for May 12- with an interaction with the workers of the state BJP's SC, ST, OBC and slum wings.

BJP IT department in-charge Amit Malviya claimed Modi through the live video interactions on 'NaMo' app created a unique way of electioneering and reached out to 25 lakh people, which included party's candidates, workers and supporters, in the poll-bound state.
