Changes have started appearing on Twitter under the new verification system. Blue ticks have been removed from the accounts of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah. Gray ticks have started appearing on their handles.

Biden and Sunak's verification tick changed
Gray ticks have started appearing on the Twitter handles of PM Modi as well as government institutions like the Prime Minister's Office (PMO). Gray ticks are visible on the Twitter profiles of many politicians including US President Joe Biden, and UK PM Rishi Sunak.
Twitter made several changes to the Blue Tick service
Twitter launched Twitter Blue with a check-mark badge on November 9 but put the service on hold two days later due to the growing number of fake accounts. New Blue Signs Ups were discontinued. Right now this service has been relaunched in some countries including America. For this, 8 dollars will have to be paid every month.
If you buy it from Apple's App Store, it will be available for $11 per month. The reason for it being expensive at the Apple Store is the 30% tax charged by Apple. In the past, Elon Musk had told about this tax of Apple. When this service will be launched in India, then 700 rupees per month may have to be paid for it.
