India is buzzing with birthday wishes for Prime Minister Narendra Modi today, September 17. Leaders from the BJP are sharing heartfelt stories that go beyond politics, highlighting how Modi’s guidance has shaped their lives and work. These tributes show the man behind the leader—someone who inspires with his vision, humility, and dedication to public service.
V.D. Sharma, the former BJP President of Madhya Pradesh, kicked off the praises by remembering his first meeting with Modi during student activism days with the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP). It happened at a national convention in Jalgaon, Maharashtra, when Modi was still the Chief Minister of Gujarat.
“PM Modi’s speech there changed how I see public life,” Sharma shared. He recalled Modi’s bold promise to make Gujarat self-reliant in power, even when officials pushed back. Modi delivered on it with smart planning and sheer determination. Sharma lives by Modi’s words: “Mana ki andhera ghana hai, lekin diya jalana kahan mana hai”—meaning, even in the darkest times, why not light a lamp?
Manju Sharma, the BJP MP from Jaipur, got personal in her tribute. She called Modi’s warmth and friendly nature a big inspiration for her and many party workers. They worked together back in 1988 when Modi was the Gujarat BJP Organisation General Secretary. He taught her the importance of service, hard work, and strong teamwork.
She shared a touching memory from her father’s last days. Modi spoke to him, and her dad said, “You’re making the country proud.” Modi replied humbly, “I’ve learned this from you.” Moments like these reveal the deep bonds and grace that define Narendra Modi’s leadership style.
Vijender Gupta, the Delhi Assembly Speaker and BJP MLA from Rohini, has known PM Modi for over 30 years. He first saw Modi’s magic as an organization minister, watching him motivate and lift up party workers.
Gupta remembered seeking Modi’s advice on tough problems. “He told me, ‘Look at the problem as a solution—focus on what you can fix,'” Gupta said. That simple advice has guided him ever since.
As India celebrates Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s birthday, these stories from close associates paint a picture of a leader who mixes big dreams with real empathy. They’re not just birthday greetings; they’re proof of how Modi’s influence touches lives through resolve, kindness, and a commitment to India. For many, he’s more than a statesman—he’s a lifelong source of motivation.
