Sun Rise In Life - Narendra Modi
Barack Obama, president of the oldest democracy country in
September, 2014 met a person who was born on 17th September, 1950,
three years after India has gained its Independence and now he is the Prime
Minister of World’s largest democracy country India. Narendra Damodardas Modi.
Narendra Modi was born at Vadnagar, northern Gujarat. His
father was Damodardas and mother Hiraben. Narendra Modi was born in a family of grocers. His
family belonged to the Ghanchi (oil-presser)
community, which is categorised among the other backward classes by the Indian government. He was the third of six children. Family
was a middle class with 6 children, itself is a Dark Night. Income of his
father was limited in small town Vadnagar that time. In this type of Night
session most of people try excuses for his life or abuses their parents for circumstances,
Night was dark at birth. Eight members were living in a small single storey
house, which was approximately 40 feet long and 12 feet wide. Family was
struggling to make ends meet. Six years aged Narendra was well familiar with
family’s circumstances and started work with studies. He started to work at
family owned tea stall. His class mates and other children were teasing him as
tea seller too, but he ignore all this teasing and remain as normal. Poverty
itself is Night of any body’s life. He struggled with his destiny and he was
dreamer. He never used his circumstances as excuses for avoiding study either.
He made study, extra reading and earning with equal importance at the age of
schooling. Such attitude towards life made him different from other from
childhood. He accepted challenges of life as Dark Night and carried on his
efforts to wait for The Sun rise in his life.
At
the age of 17 he left home to travel across India. For two years he travelled
across the expansive landscape of India exploring various cultures. When he
returned home he was a changed man with a clear aim of what he wanted to
achieve in life. He went to Ahmadabad and joined Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh
(RSS). RSS is a socio-cultural organisation working towards the social and
cultural regeneration of India. It was a tough routine for Narendra Modi in Ahmadabad
since 1972 when he became a Pracharak (campaigner) for RSS. His day began at 5
am and went on till late Night. Late 1970s also saw a young Narendra Modi join
the movement to restore Democracy in India which was reeling under Emergency
led by prime minister Mrs Indira Gandhi.
While
continuing to shoulder different responsibilities within the Sangh during the
1980s Narendra Modi emerged as an Organizer exemplar with his organizing
skills. In 1987 a different chapter began in the life of Mr. Modi when he
started work as the General Secretary of the BJP in Gujarat. In his first task,
Mr. Modi won a victory for the BJP in Ahmadabad Municipal Corporation elections
for the first time ever. He also ensured that the BJP was a close second to the
Congress in the 1990 Gujarat Assembly elections. In the 1995 Assembly elections
Mr. Modi’s organizational skills ensured the BJP’s vote share increased and the
party won 121 seats in the Assembly.
Mr.
Modi worked as the National Secretary of BJP from 1995 looking after party’s
activities in Haryana and Himachal Pradesh. As BJP’s General Secretary
Organisation, he worked to ensure the BJP won the 1998 Lok Sabha elections. It
was in September 2001 that Mr. Modi received a phone call from then Prime
Minister Vajpayee which opened a new chapter in his life taking him from the
rough and tumble of Organizational Politics to the World of Governance. This is
the time, when Narendra Modi’s mind believed that -
SUN
RISE
IN
HIS LIFE
Of politics.
He
became Chief Minister of Gujarat in 2000 and successfully stayed for 13 years. On
26th May, 2014 he took oath as 15th Prime Minister of World’s
largest democracy with a history making victory of his party just because of
his popularity.
Narendra
Modi became a Prime Minister of India from a Tea Seller is example of human
spirit of being successful and reaching on top, fulfilling dream against all
odds called Night period of life.
Mind is never a problem. Mind-set is.
In my life mission is everything. Even if I was a municipal
chairman, I would have worked as hard as a CM - Narendra Modi
