Early Life

Shri. Narendra Modi was born as Narendra Damodardas Modi on 17 September 1950 at Vadnagar, Gujarat. He was the third of six children born to Damodardas Mulchand Modi (c. 1915–1989) and Hiraben Modi (born c. 1920). He finished higher secondary education in Vadnagar in 1967.

Modiji got betrothed and married to Jasodaben when he was 18 and she was 17. But he preferred to live a life of an ascetic. Swami Vivekanand inspired him and he started visiting Hindu ashrams founded by Swami Vivekananda: the Belur Math near Kolkata, followed by the Advaita Ashrama in Almora and the Ramakrishna Mission in Rajkot. The Belur Math and Ramakrishna Ashram in Almora didn’t accept him but that didn’t stop him from travelling back to Gujarat via Delhi and Rajasthan in 1968–69. He stayed briefly at Vadnagar before going to live with his uncle in Ahmedabad in 1970 where he served tea in the latter’s  canteen at the Gujarat State Road Transport Corporation.
