India took a few more steps towards becoming self-reliant. On the one hand, local companies are coming up with one mobile application after another, and on the other hand, India is slowly becoming self-sufficient in social media platforms. And at such a juncture, the massive viral Koo App, which is being called an alternative to the microblogging site Twitter in India. This Koo App was developed by Aprameya Radhakrishna of Bangalore in 2020 10 months ago today. This local alternative to Twitter has already won the Digital India AatmaNirbhar Bharat Innovate Challenge.
A few days ago, Union Railway Minister Piyush Goel tweeted that he had joined the local microblogging platform Koo App. And since then, questions have started to arise among the people of the country surrounding this app. Due to the recent dispute between Twitter and the Indian government, the need for another alternative desi app has also been felt. At the moment, the Center is trying to attract people’s attention in search of a local alternative to all the foreign and popular social media platforms in the country. That’s exactly how a tweet from Union Minister Piyush Goel started with the Koo App. After that, yesterday, the Bollywood actress took to Twitter to express her desire to return to the Swadeshi Koo App.
I am now on Koo.
