Cricketing fraternity send wishes for Narendra Modi on his 68th birthday
Among cricketers was Vinod Kambli, Sachin Tendulkar and many others.
Narendra Modi is among the most eminent personalities in the history of Indian politics. Back on May 26, 2014, he took oath as the 15th Prime Minister of the nation. Modi replaced Manmohan Singh for the prestigious position. Prior to that, he served as the Chief Minister of Gujarat for 13 years from 2001 to 2014. The veteran is also the Member of Parliament for Varanasi.
He became Gujarat’s Chief Minister after Keshubhai Patel’s deteriorating health and poor public image following the earthquake in Bhuj. In the 2014 General Elections, he led the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the party ended with a majority in the Lok Sabha. After being appointed as the Prime Minister, Modi’s government has been trying to raise Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).

The policies applied by him have been appreciated across the nation and has been said to improve the economic state of the country. However, his administration has been a recipient of severe criticism as it has failed to improve health, poverty, and education in the state. He has been a part of a number of controversies, both domestically and internationally.
The experienced campaigner is currently celebrating his 68th birthday and wishes have poured in for him from every nook and corner of the world. Even the cricketers have showered him with accolades on the auspicious occasion. Many current and former Indian cricketers took to Twitter and expressed their gratitude towards Modi for his priceless contributions to Indian politics.
Among former cricketers was Vinod Kambli, Sachin Tendulkar, and VVS Laxman who garnered a number of laurels for Indian cricket during their playing days. The likes of Yuvraj Singh, Amit Mishra, Manoj Tiwary, Suresh Raina, and Pragyan Ojha, who haven’t been able to cement their positions in the Indian team owing to their indifferent form, also thanked Modi.
