Gujarat, Sep 17, 2019 : Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday paid a visit to his mother Heeraben at her residence in Gujarat’s Gandhinagar on the occasion of his 69th birthday after an action-packed day involving a visit to the Sardar Sarovar dam and a public address, Yahoo reported.

 

Photos showed Heeraben, 98, enjoying a meal with PM Modi who later met his neighbours and obliged them with photographs.

Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister visited the Statue of Unity and Sardar Sarovar Dam. He landed in Gujarat on Monday night and flew from Gandhinagar to Kevadia on Tuesday morning.
