Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Wednesday extended greetings to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his 75th birthday and prayed for his long life.
CM Dhami said that PM Modi has a special attachment to Uttarakhand. "On behalf of all the citizens of Uttarakhand, I extend my best wishes and congratulations to the Prime Minister on his birthday. I pray to all the deities of Uttarakhand that he remains healthy and that our country continues to enjoy his leadership for a long time. The Prime Minister has a special attachment to Uttarakhand," Uttarakhand CM Dhami said. A 15-day nationwide campaign named 'Seva Pakhwada' has been launched to mark PM Modi's birthday. Under this campaign, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) plans to conduct blood donation camps, cleanliness drives, and exhibitions across the country to showcase the achievements of the central government. Celebrations for Prime Minister Modi's 75th birthday are underway across the country, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) organising a fortnight-long sewa pakhwada with various events. Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the 'Swasth Nari, Sashakt Parivar' (SNSP) Abhiyaan along with the 8th Rashtriya Poshan Maah, in Dhar, Madhya Pradesh today. The Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar Abhiyan marks the largest-ever health outreach for women and children in India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, born on September 17 1950, officially joined the RSS in 1971, but he was introduced to the Sangh at a much younger age. In 1985, he was assigned to join the Bharatiya Janata Party, and quickly rose through the party's ranks, becoming its General Secretary in 1998. Three years later, in 2001, he became the Chief Minister of Gujarat. And 13 years after that, in 2014, Narendra Modi took oath as the Prime Minister of India for the first time. (ANI)
