Ten million users on Weibo, China's equivalent of Twitter, have read the news that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has dropped his Sina Weibo profile, depriving his 244,000 followers of future posts by the leader. On Thursday, Modi's profile picture and 115 posts under the 'Prime Minister Modi' VIP account were removed, with the account since deleted at the request of the Indian Embassy in Beijing.
