Today, across the entire country, prayers and blessings are being offered for the Prime Minister, wishing him a long life and success in realising the vision of a developed India by 2047: a vision he has championed."

"Today, September 17th, marks the birthday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. On this occasion, on behalf of the people of the state, I extend my heartfelt birthday greetings and best wishes to the Prime Minister. The entire nation is celebrating this special occasion through a 'Seva Sankalp Abhiyan'. September 17th is an opportunity for us to express gratitude towards a leader whose entire life has been dedicated to public service and service to the nation," he said.
Calling PM Modi the "architect of developed India," Sharma said that he is steering the country in a new direction.
"One such resolve, which began with public service 25 years ago, has evolved into a journey of service to the nation. This journey of service, which started when he became the Chief Minister of Gujarat, continues unabated. The birthday of the Prime Minister, the architect of a developed India who is steering the country in a new direction, is precisely such an occasion," he said.
He emphasised that under PM Modi's leadership, development has gained accelerated momentum across rural and urban India, directly improving the lives of lakhs of families.
"Under the leadership of the Prime Minister, the pace of the country's development has gained new energy, reaching everywhere from villages to cities and extending to the most marginalised sections of society. Public welfare schemes have brought positive changes to the lives of lakhs of families, and India's self-confidence has steadily strengthened on the global stage," he said.
Crediting the "double-engine government" approach, Sharma affirmed that targeted policies for the youth have restored trust in governance and opened new avenues for empowerment.
"Under the Prime Minister, India's internal security has become more robust than ever before. The steps taken by our double-engine government in the interest of the youth, under the Prime Minister's guidance, have strengthened the youth's trust in our government," he said. (ANI)
