Neetu Chandra & Anup Jalota congratulate PM Modi as he becomes India's longest-serving Prime Minister
Mumbai, June 9
Creating history, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has become the longest-serving PM of the country.
Congratulating PM Modi on this latest benchmark, Bollywood actress Neetu Chandra said during an exclusive conversation with IANS, "First of all, many congratulations to Prime Minister Modi from all of us. You have been serving our country for so many years, and it continues. A lot of work has been happening and has continued over all these years. It will continue in the future as well-this is what we expect from you. I am sure you have many plans ahead. Hope you will also focus on women's development. Please make sure we all are incorporated in whatever plans you have for the nation. We all look forward to seeing India achieve even greater heights under your guidance and leadership."
"I think everybody looks up to you, and we also look up to you as the females of India, and we have a lot of expectations from you. I am sure a lot of good things are going to happen," she went on to add.
In addition to this, Singer Anup Jalota expressed his wish that PM Modi continues leading the nation for years to come.
He told IANS, "It will be 4,399 days, on the 10th of June, of Modi ji as the Prime Minister. This is the highest number of days. No other Prime Minister has stayed for so many days. Nehru ji also did not stay for so many days. Modi ji has stayed longer than Nehru ji. I want Modi ji to become the Permanent PM. I don't want anyone else. I want him to stay forever. He has brought so much progress to the country."
"He has increased our respect in the whole world. I congratulate Modi ji and the entire country. Narendra Modi is the one who has served as the Prime Minister the most. I wish him a long life. May he lead the country on the path of progress," he concluded.

I respect the achievement but Anup Jalota saying 'Permanent PM' is worrying. 😳 No one should be permanent in a democracy. Even Jawaharlal Nehru had his time and we moved on. Modi ji has done good work but we must protect democratic values. Let's celebrate the milestone but not lose sight of institutions. Hope the opposition also learns from this and rebuilds.
💪 Longest serving PM, and it's well deserved! The way he handled COVID vaccine delivery, free food grains for 80 crore people, and the G20 presidency—unbelievable coordination. Anup Jalota's emotions represent crores of Indians. But let's be honest, unemployment among youth is still a challenge. Hope the third term focuses on jobs and farmers' income. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳
I'm happy for this milestone but a bit uncomfortable with the 'permanent PM' idea. 🙄 Democracy thrives on change and accountability. Modi ji has done remarkable work in infrastructure and international relations, but inflation and inequality remain real issues for common people. Also, I wish Neetu Chandra's call for women's development gets translated into concrete policies—we need more women in leadership and safer workplaces. Let's keep the pressure on for inclusive growth.
As an outsider looking in, it's impressive that India has maintained such political stability. 🇮🇳 In many democracies, governments change every 2-3 years. Whether you support him or not, 10 continuous years of governance allows for long-term planning. I've seen the impact in my business dealings—India is now taken more seriously globally. But the 'permanent PM' talk does raise eyebrows. Every country needs checks and balances. Still, congrats to PM Modi on the record!
