This achievement highlights X’s expanding influence in the Indian digital space, especially after the platform’s rebranding earlier this year. It appears to be resonating well with users seeking real-time news and updates.

The milestone was initially shared by DogeDesigner, who highlighted the platform’s breakthrough performance in India. The recognition underscores the growing role of X in delivering news and engaging with a vast and diverse user base in one of the world’s largest markets.
