From Tea Seller to Prime Minister: The Story of Narendra Modi

On the occasion of his birthday, September 17th, discussions and greetings regarding Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s life filled social media. Born on September 17, 1950, in Vadnagar, Gujarat, he has now reached the age of 75. His journey from a ‘Chaiwala’ to the leader of the world’s largest democracy is an inspiring story. He grew up in a modest, loving family, the son of Damodardas Modi and Hiraba Modi. From an early age, he dedicated himself to serving the people and the nation. He began his journey with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) before transitioning into politics with the Bharatiya Janata Party. His time as Chief Minister of Gujarat and his election victory in 2014 paved the way for his role as Prime Minister of India. His governance is characterized by the motto ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas’.
