India’s Prime Minister has joined the newly launched WhatsApp feature - WhatsApp Channels. This allows citizens and non-residents to follow his feed and keep a track of the latest updates shared by the PM.
Sharing his first post on the channel, PM Modi said, "Thrilled to join the WhatsApp community! It is yet another step closer in our journey of continued interactions. Let's stay connected here! Here’s a picture from the new Parliament Building…" on Tuesday, September 19.
This new feature lets the users who follow his channel to have direct communications and receive regular updates from the Prime Minister on WhatsApp. Meta has launched this new feature recently in over 150 countries.
WhatsApp Channels is a one-way broadcast system that provides a private way to get updates from individuals as well as organisations who are relevant to the users directly within WhatsApp.
WhatsApp's goal with Channels is to create the most private broadcasting service available in the market.
Smartphone users can find and access channels by going to the "Updates" tab. This tab is incorporated with the status tab, and users can find a channel they want to follow or create their own channel.
Users can only interact with emojis in a channel post and can see the total count of reactions in a post. The reactions are private, and no user can see how another user has reacted in a post, maintaining total anonymity.
