Extending birthday greetings to PM Modi, the LG said he prays for the Prime Minister’s continued health and dedication. “Under his leadership, India has become the fourth largest economy in the world and over 25 crore people have come out of poverty to lead dignified lives,” Sinha stated.

Economic development was the need of the hour, and its benefits have now reached rural areas and the poor,” he said.
