Modi’s life on PM Narendra Modi Birthday
PM Modi was born on September 17, 1950, in Vadnagar, India. He is an Indian politician and government officer who eventually emerged as one of the leading figures within the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). In 2014 he led his party to victory in elections to the Lok Sabha, lower chamber of the Indian parliament, after which he became sworn in as prime minister of India. Earlier he held the position of chief minister (head of government) of Gujarat state in western India, from 2001 to 2014.
The BJP under Modi, and the NDA alliance under the BJP, once again won an overall majority in the 2019 general election. Though BJP could not garner an absolute majority of seats in the Lok Sabha elections 2024 on its own, NDA, led by BJP, won a comfortable majority with 293 of the 543 seats in Lok Sabha, making Modi ready to begin a third consecutive term as the country’s prime minister.
Early life and political career
Narendra Modi Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was first elected to the position in 2014. He won his second and third terms consecutively in 2019 and was sworn in for a third term on June 9, 2024.
Modi was born in a small town in northern Gujarat and afterwards earned an M.A. degree in political science from Gujarat University at Ahmedabad. He joined the pro Hindutva Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) organization at the early stages of the 1970s, and he founded a local unit of the RSS’s students’ wing, the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad. He worked his way up within the RSS and, as an RSS activist, received great advantages of being associated with the RSS in any future political career.
PM Modi joined the BJP in 1987 and in the following year, he was made the general secretary of the Gujarat branch of the party. He played an important role in significantly strengthening the presence of the party in the state during succeeding years. In 1990 Modi was one of the BJP members who joined a coalition government in the state, and helped the BJP succeed in the 1995 state legislative assembly elections that in March enabled the party to form the first-ever BJP-controlled government in India. The BJP’s control of the state government was not lasting, however, ceasing in September 1996.
Modi’s political career from then on has been marked by controversy. Gujarat burned in communal riots in 2002, especially under his leadership as chief minister. Many accused him of tolerating the violence or, at the very least, of not doing much to put a stop to the killing of over 1,000 people, mostly Muslims, that followed when dozens of Hindu passengers died after their train was set on fire in the city of Godhra. In 2005, the United States refused him a diplomatic visa based on allegations that he was behind the 2002 riots and also criticized his role in the riots by the United Kingdom.
Although in the following years Modi himself managed to avoid any indictment or retribution—either from the judiciary or from investigating agencies—some of his closest confederates were convicted of complicity with the 2002 events and sentenced to long prison terms. Modi’s government was also charged with responsibility for extrajudicial executions (collectively known as “encounters” or “fake encounters”) carried out by police or other state forces. One such incident in 2004 was the murder of a woman and three men whom officials claimed to be of Lashkar-e-Taiba, that were members of a Pakistan-based terrorist organization alleged to have plotted Modi’s assassination.
Despite political success time and again in Gujarat, the repeated victories left Modi indispensable to the BJP hierarchy, thus leading his reintegration into the political mainstream. Elections In the December 2002 legislative assembly elections, under his leadership, the BJP won a sweeping victory by taking all of 127 of the 182 seats in the chamber-which included one for Modi. Using this manifesto as a political cue for growth and development in Gujarat, the BJP won again in the 2007 state assembly polls with a total of 117 seats, and the party was once more victorious in the 2012 polls, bagging 115 seats. Modi won his contests and returned as chief minister in both times.
After a highly aggressive campaign, in which Modi portrayed himself as a practical candidate who could turn around India’s underperforming economy, he and the party emerged victorious: the BJP won a clear majority of seats in the chamber. Modi was sworn-in as prime minister on May 26, 2014 first time, till now he is PM of India.
