Who is Noob? PM Modi takes a dig at opposition during conversation with gamers
Narendra Modi engaged in a lively interaction today with some of India's leading gamers, delving into the realm of gaming and its future prospects. During the discussion, PM Modi made a playful reference to the opposition, employing the term 'noob,' commonly used in gaming circles to describe someone new or inexperienced.
«If I use this word (noob) during elections, people will wonder who am I referring to… If I say it, you will think of a particular person,» PM Modi said.
In the conversation, the Prime Minister also explored avenues for government support to bolster the gaming industry's growth trajectory. He sought insights into the challenges faced by gamers in India, particularly distinguishing between skill-based games and those promising quick financial gains. The gamers raised concerns about the need for clarity on different game categories and highlighted issues related to video game addiction.
The seven gamers who had the opportunity to meet PM Modi were — Naman Mathur (Mortal), Animesh Agarwal (Thug), Anshu Bishu (Gamerfleet), Ganesh Gangadhar (SKrossi), Tirth Mehta (Gcttirth), Payal Dhare (Payal Gaming), and Mithilesh Patankar (MythPat).
During the course of the informal exchange, the gamers affectionately bestowed upon PM Modi a new moniker, 'NaMo OP,' with 'OP' signifying 'overpowered.'
«We all have gamer tags. Since you are a Gen Z like us, we would now call you 'NaMo OP' (overpowered), as you are the most powerful person in the country, in our livestream chats,» the gamers expressed.
