The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) announces a month-long campaign to mark Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 25 years in public life, beginning around his birthday. BJP president Nitin Nabin says the party will observe October 7 as “Seva Diwas,” framed as part of a broader “Seva Sankalp Abhiyan.”
Multiple outlets report the campaign is tied to Modi’s public service timeline. NDTV and The Hindu link October 7 to the start of his political career as Chief Minister of Gujarat, saying he took the oath on October 7, 2001, beginning his 25-year public service journey. Times of India describes the initiative using the name “Seva Sankalp Abhiyan,” describing it as a month-long programme.
The coverage centers on the campaign announcement from BJP headquarters in New Delhi, with outlets varying mainly in the specific campaign name and how they describe the start point. All accounts emphasize the party’s plan to use Modi’s birthday and the October 7 milestone to mark the 25-year span.
