Early
Life and Political Career
Narendra Modi was born in a family of Wadnagar, in
Gujrat. During his childhood, he used to sell tea and peanut. That has been as
great source of inspiration for many youth around India and the world. It has
been proved that a tea seller in a street can be a prime minister of a powerful
country of the world, then if any person has the courage to follow his/her
dreams, then they can achieve what they want.
At the age of eight, he got to connect with RSS and
remained with it for a long time. After having bachelor degree, he left his
home. Then he visited whole India for two years. During his visit, he
frequently visited religious places. In
1969 and 070 he returned to Gujrat again and headed to Ahamdabaad. In 1971 he had life-long membership of RSS.
During the insurgency period of 1975, he became underground. Then he got connected
with BJP in 1985 and until 2001 he performed different roles inside the party.
Gradually he became secretary of BJP.
Due to the massive earthquake of 2001 and bad health
as well as bad reputation of contemporary Chief Minister Kesubhai Patel, he got
opportunity to be nominated in the post of Chief Minister of Gujrat.
Immediately he was elected in the parliamentary. During the violence of 2002, his
administration is often regarded as cruel and rude. He was also massively
criticized. However, the committee organized to examine the agents involved in
the violence by Supreme Court could not found any substantial evidence.
In his leadership BJP went to the election in 2014
and got 280 seats, which was massive that opened the way for BJP to form his
own prime minister in the central. Now he is one of the famous politicians of
the country. He is one of the most
famous and followed leader in social networking sites twitter and Facebook.
Family
Life
Narendra Modi, though lives separately, is a married
person. He has also his mother alive in the village of Gujrat. Accordingly, he
got married in very childhood and it didn’t become successful.
Narendra
Modi's marriage was arranged by his parents when he was a child. He was engaged
with Jasodaben Narendrabhai Modi(13 years old) marrying her when he was 18.
They spent little time together and grew apart when Modi began two years of
travel, including visits to Hindu ashrams (asyluym). Reportedly, their marriage
was never consumated and he kept it a secret because otherwise he could not
have become a 'pracharak' in the puritan Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh. Although
Modi kept his marriage secret for most of his career, he acknowledged his wife
when he filed his nomination for a parliamentary seat in the 2014 general
elections. Modi maintains a close relationship with his mother, Hiraben and
often visits her on his birthday to seek her blessings. (Wikipedia)
