Modi’s 25‑Year Service Milestone Highlighted by Temple Visit

NEW DELHI (IANS) — Prime Minister Narendra Modi marked a quarter‑century of political service by visiting Shri Vinayak Temple in Delhi’s Sarojini Nagar on Wednesday. The ceremony featured a dedicated puja and a request for Lord Ganesha’s blessings for the nation’s growth, health and harmony. The leader reiterated his promise to work tirelessly for India’s progress, a promise first made when he assumed the role of Gujarat’s longest‑serving chief minister in 2001 and later as Prime Minister in 2014. Modi’s latest term began after a decisive victory in the 2024 general elections, bringing his cumulative leadership experience to 25 years.
