New Delhi (National Times): Prime Minister Narendra Modi today achieved a historic milestone, completing 4,078 uninterrupted days in office, making him one of the longest-serving Prime Ministers in the history of independent India.
This landmark moment not only highlights his personal political journey but also reflects the continued trust reposed in him by the nation. Here’s what makes this feat even more significant:
A Series of Firsts and Records:
India’s first Prime Minister born after independence
Longest-serving non-Congress Prime Minister
Only PM since Indira Gandhi to be re-elected with a full majority
One of just two leaders in Indian history to secure three consecutive national mandates
Dual-Governance Expertise
Modi remains the only Indian Prime Minister with extensive experience leading both a state and the central government—having served over 12 years as Chief Minister of Gujarat before assuming national office.
Unbroken Electoral Winning Streak
As the face of the BJP, Modi has led the party to six major electoral victories:
Gujarat Assembly: 2002, 2007, 2012
Lok Sabha Elections: 2014, 2019, 2024
Symbol of Stability and Strength
From bold economic reforms to global diplomacy and grassroots governance, his tenure is widely seen as a period of assertive leadership, development-focused policy-making, and strategic vision on both domestic and international fronts.
As India continues its journey as a rising global power, this milestone serves as a reminder of the democratic continuity, public mandate, and political resilience that have defined Narendra Modi’s era of leadership.
