Union Home Minister Amit Shah has announced that he has shifted his party-related email communication from Gmail to Zoho Mail, a platform developed by Chennai-based software company Zoho. The change was shared on October 8, 2025, through a post on X.
Mr. Shah wrote, “Hello everyone, I have switched to Zoho Mail. Kindly note the change in my email address. My new email address is amitshah.bjp @ zohomail.in. For future correspondence via mail, kindly use this address. Thank you for your kind attention to this matter.”
While this switch applies to his party communication, the official government email address — [email protected]
— remains unchanged.
Prior to this, Mr. Shah was using Gmail, a U.S.-based platform, for handling his party-related email correspondence.
Responding to the announcement, Zoho’s founder Sridhar Vembu said, “I dedicate this moment to our hard-working engineers who have toiled hard in Zoho for over 20 years. They all stayed in India and worked all these years because they believed. Their faith is vindicated. Jai Hind, Jai Bharat.”
Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami also confirmed that he has made a similar shift to Zoho Mail.
Earlier, the Education Ministry had also directed its offices to adopt the Zoho suite for their official use.
