Khammam: BJP leaders on Wednesday hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for becoming the longest-serving Prime Minister, stating that his 12-year tenure reflects India’s remarkable progress across sectors.

Marking the occasion, BJP workers offered special prayers and planted saplings at the Sri Abhaya Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Khammam. BJP district president Nelluri Koteswara Rao and Kisan Morcha national executive member Goli Masoodan Reddy said Modi had surpassed the tenure record of Jawaharlal Nehru and completed 4,399 days in office.

The leaders highlighted reforms such as the National Education Policy, Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, infrastructure expansion, digital governance and initiatives aimed at strengthening India’s global standing.
