On this auspicious occasion Lets have look of some of the memories of our Prime Minister Narendra Modi… A look at the unbelievable journey of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in rare pictures on his 69th birthday. For one who sold tea as a tea boy at a railway station in Gujarat, Narendra Modi has had a meteoric rise in Indian politics, catapulting from a chief minister to the prime minister.

Born on Sep 17, 1950, into an ordinary lower-middle-class family in Mehsana district in Gujarat, he was the third of four children. Damodardas His father, made tea at a small shop. The son would take it in a kettle to sell it to train passengers at the Vadnagar railway station.

At oratory even in school Modi displayed skills. He would often disappear from his family for months, staying in isolated places or wandering in the Himalayas.

After the 1971 India-Pakistan war Modi formally joined the RSS.

His chores included, after waking up at 4 a.m., cleaning the office, making tea as well as breakfast and evening snacks for senior colleagues, and replying to emails when he moved to the RSS office in Delhi .

When Indira Gandhi declared emergency rule and jailed political foes, Modi – back in Gujarat by then – went underground, tirelessly crisscrossed places on a Bajaj scooter, occasionally disguised, and printed and sent booklets against the central government to Delhi.

Modi graduated in political science from Delhi University and went on to do his Masters from Gujarat University even as he embraced politics.

In 1987-88, he was deputed to the BJP’s Gujarat unit as organizing secretary, marking his formal launch in mainstream politics.Modi won the admiration of seniors for his hard work and efficiency.

An event that catapulted the BJP on to the national stage like never before. Modi slowly took control of the BJP across the length and breadth of Gujarat, interacting intimately with activists, and played a key role in 1990 when Advani took out his Rath Yatra (chariot march) from Somnath to Ayodhya.

In 2002 Modi later led the party to a remarkable win and has never looked back.

Large sections of the middle class began to root for him, especially for his I-can-do attitude and his resolve to fix the ills of the nation plaguing by multiple problems, including a languishing economy. Over time, Modi became a symbol of development and the party’s ability to deliver good governance.

On 26 May 2014, Modi was sworn in as the Prime Minister of India. After India’s independence from the British Empire, he became the first Prime Minister.

After 1st component as NMC has already started construction of Metro Mall on plot no. 1, Flat schemes for EWS will be the second component of Orange Street.

These towers will come up between Yashoda Nagar and Jaitala Square,” said NMC executive engineer Naresh Borkar. NMC will rope in seed money to start construction of flat schemes. In the parallel process, the civic body will select beneficiaries under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), take an advance from them, and use it in the construction.NMC plans to accommodate the existing vegetable market, which is a popular one on Sunday for a large number of areas. As per NMC proposal, a commercial complex will come up towards the front side of Jaitala Road followed by vegetable and mutton market, and then flat schemes.

NMC is also likely to save money, which would help sell commercial spaces in Metro Mall at cheaper rates said Municipal commissioner Abhijit Bangar.
