Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday expressed gratitude to President Droupadi Murmu for her heartfelt wishes on his 75th birthday, reaffirming his commitment to building a strong and self-reliant India with the support of 140 crore citizens.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), PM Modi wrote, “Thank you very much for your best wishes and gratitude to President Droupadi Murmu. With the affection and cooperation of 140 crore fellow citizens, we will always remain dedicated to building a strong, capable, and self-reliant India. In this direction, your vision and thoughts are very inspiring for us.”

Earlier, President Murmu posted her wishes on X, saying, “Heartfelt birthday greetings and best wishes to the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi. By exemplifying the pinnacle of hard work through your extraordinary leadership, you have instilled a culture of achieving great goals in the country. Today, the global community is also expressing its faith in your guidance. I pray to God that you remain forever healthy and joyful, and with your unique leadership, lead the nation to new heights of progress.”

The Prime Minister’s 75th birthday has turned into a national moment of celebration, with greetings pouring in from political leaders and citizens across the country.

On this occasion, PM Modi will visit Bhainsola village in Dhar district, Madhya Pradesh, to lay the foundation stone for India’s first PM MITRA (Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel) Park, aimed at boosting the state’s textile sector.

In addition, the Prime Minister will launch two landmark national initiatives — Swasth Nari, Sashakt Parivar (Healthy Women, Empowered Families) and the 8th Rashtriya Poshan Maah (National Nutrition Month). These initiatives will mark India’s largest-ever health outreach campaign, with over one lakh health camps held nationwide between September 17 and October 2.

The campaign will provide preventive, promotive, and curative health services focused on women and children, including screenings for non-communicable diseases, anaemia, tuberculosis, and sickle cell disease, along with maternal and adolescent health check-ups, immunisations, and nutrition counselling.

Specialised services in gynaecology, paediatrics, dermatology, ENT, psychiatry, and other areas will be offered through public and private institutions. Blood donation drives will also be conducted nationwide with registrations through the e-Raktkosh portal and engagement via the MyGov platform.
