Narendra Modi is the Prime Minister of India, serving since May 2014. Before becoming PM, he was the Chief Minister of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014. Modi grew up in a modest family in Vadnagar, Gujarat, and was involved with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) from a young age. His leadership skills brought him to the forefront of the BJP, and he became the party’s Prime Ministerial candidate in 2014.
Modi's tenure as PM is marked by a focus on economic reforms, infrastructure development, and national security. His initiatives include Make in India, Digital India, Swachh Bharat, and the introduction of Goods and Services Tax (GST). In 2016, his controversial demonetization move aimed to tackle black money.
He won a second term in 2019 with a larger majority, continuing policies like the revocation of Article 370 in Jammu & Kashmir. Modi's leadership has been both praised for economic progress and criticized for its impact on religious harmony and social issues.
Modi is seen as a transformative and polarizing figure in modern Indian politics.
