In Brief

Narendra Damodardas Modi is the serving chief minister of the Indian state of Gujarat and has remained the chief minister of the state since 2001 and is a member of the BJP as well as the RSS. He started off as the interim chief minister of the state following the resignation of Keshubhai Patel in 2011 and since then he has remained in office till date. His reign was intitially tarnished by the infamous communal riots in Gujarat in 2002 but since then he has been hailed as a champion of developmental politics as a result of which the state is now regarded as one of the most developed in the country.

Narendra Modi was born on 17th of September in the year 1950 and has 5 other siblings. His family had a grocery store in a village called Vadnagar in Mehsana district in Gujarat. During his school days Modi worked in the canteen of the Gujrat Sate Road Transport Corporation where came into contact with the representatives of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and by the time he was in university he was a fully fledged member of the RSS. Modi holds a master’s degree in Political Science from Gujarat University.

Although there was far reaching controversy during the elections in 2002 due to the Gujarat riots, the BJP were successful in winning the elections and from then on Modi has remained in power in Gujarat. The highlight of his reign in Gujarat has been the industry friendly policies that the state has adopted in order to encourage more and more Indian and global corporations to come to the state in order to set up their businesses and factories. Modi’s most recent term i.e the third term has been more concentrated on developing the agricultural production of the state of Gujarat which was never really a state that was known in that sector and in that regard the situation has improved with higher produce recorded for many crops.

As the general elections approaches in 2014, Modi has been looked upon as a possible prime ministerial candidate for his party- the BJP. Although it has not been announced yet, Modi has been inducted into the BJP’s Parliamentary Board which is one of the most high profile groups in the party and is responsible for charting the strategy of the party during the elections. Along with that, he has also been made a part of the party’s Central Election Committee.
