Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday paid tributes to former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi on his death anniversary.
PM Modi took to Twitter and wrote, “On his death anniversary, paying tributes to our former Prime Minister Shri Rajiv Gandhi.”
Rajiv Gandhi’s son and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi posted a tribute, remembering him as a visionary leader and a wonderful father whom he dearly misses.
“My father was a visionary leader whose policies helped shape modern India,” Rahul Gandhi wrote along with a video of Rajiv Gandhi’s speech: ‘India is an old country but a young nation. And like the young everywhere, we are impatient. I am young and I too have a dream. I dream of India strong, independent, self-reliant and in the forefront and the front rank of the nations of the world, in the service of mankind. I am committed to realising that dream through dedication, hard work and the collective determination of our people.”
