PM Modi Completes 25 Years in Power; Temple Puja, Nationwide Celebrations Mark Milestone
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has successfully completed 25 years as a head of government in India. To commemorate this historic milestone, on the morning of October 7, 2026, he performed a special puja and aarti at the Shri Vinayak Temple in Sarojini Nagar, New Delhi. During the ceremony, he prayed for the peace, prosperity, and good health of the nation's citizens.
Prime Minister Modi's remarkable journey as the head of government began on October 7, 2001, with his first oath as the Chief Minister of Gujarat. This 25-year period is broadly divided into two significant phases. In the first phase, he served as the Chief Minister of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014, after which he became the Prime Minister of India in 2014. With his party's victories in the Lok Sabha elections of 2014, 2019, and 2024, he is currently serving his third consecutive term as India's Prime Minister.
