Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reached another historic milestone in Indian politics. On July 25, 2025, he completed 4,078 days in office, surpassing Indira Gandhi's record of 4,077 consecutive days as Prime Minister.
With this achievement, he has become the second longest-serving consecutive Prime Minister in the country. This accomplishment is not just a milestone; it signifies his enduring leadership at both state and national levels for 24 years, an unmatched record among all Prime Ministers.
PM Modi began his tenure as the Chief Minister of Gujarat in 2001, and to date, he has led an elected government for about 24 years at both state and national levels. This achievement stands unparalleled among Indian Prime Ministers.
As the first Prime Minister born in independent India, and a non-Congress leader serving the longest term, PM Modi's legacy includes:
First Prime Minister born post-independence
Longest-serving non-Congress Prime Minister
Longest-serving Prime Minister from a non-Hindi speaking state
First non-Congress leader with two full terms, elected for a third
First non-Congress Prime Minister with a majority in Lok Sabha
First after Indira Gandhi to secure full majority twice consecutively
Victories in 2002, 2007, 2012 (Gujarat) and 2014, 2019, 2024 (Lok Sabha) elections
Consistent victories!
His political track record includes leading his party to victory in three consecutive national elections, an achievement matched only by Jawaharlal Nehru. Furthermore, as Chief Minister, Modi led his party to six consecutive wins – three in Gujarat and three nationally, reinforcing his status as an embodiment of electoral success.
