What is the Modi story? All you need to know about this portal for his stories

New Delhi, Mar 26: With an aim to compile the stories of Prime Minister Narendra Modi by those who have seen him closely, the Bharatiya Janata Party has introduced MODI STORY, a volunteer-driven initiative that brings together inspiring moments from Prime Minister's life as narrated by his co-travelers. It was inaugurated by Sumitra Gandhi Kulkarni, granddaughter of Mahatma Gandhi.

 

 

Several prominent BJP leaders and ministers including Smriti Irani, Anurag Thakur, Kiren Rijiju, Biplab Kumar Deb, and several others tweeted about 'Modi story' on Saturday morning which is about the journey of PM Modi.

 

 

Apart from this, on the website, https://www.modistory.in/ prominent personalities including those from politics, sports, and other backgrounds have also shared stories. Interestingly, when one visits this site, the logo of the 'Modi Story' has the designs and graphics of a glass of hot tea, depicting the roots of PM Modi.

 

The website shares stories, experiences and anecdotes from the likes of BJP leader Manoranjan Kalia from Punjab - a state that the Prime Minister handled in the early days of his political journey as a party office-bearer, Rasbihari Maniyar - his school principal at Vadnagar in Gujarat, and Sharda Prajapati - in whose house the Prime Minister often stayed in the 1990s during his tours.

 

 

"We believe Narendra Modi’s life story, as seen from the eyes of those who have seen him, is a source of inspiration today and for generations to come. It brings a sense of self belief – 'I too can be like Modi'," the site said. The logo of the site is a warm teacup.

 

Among many stories, there is Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra's video message sharing his experience of meeting PM Modi. "We did not feel like we were meeting the prime minister of India. He talked to every single player and knew about us individually. Since Narendra Modi became the PM, there has been a lot of change in the sports," Neeraj Chopra said.

 

"Stories of grit & grace … memories of the magic of personal meetings, talks that reflect an amiable persona, a decisive political personality…stories till now untold, unheard," Smriti Irani tweeted.
