Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a leader who took charge during a period of crisis and infused confidence and renewed energy among the people, Andhra Pradesh, Health, Medical and Family Welfare Minister Satya Kumar Yadav has said.

The Minister issued a press statement highlighting Mr. Modi’s achievements on the occasion of his completing 25 years as the head of a government.

Recalling that Mr. Modi became Gujarat Chief Minister on October 7, 2001, and assumed office as Prime Minister on May 26, 2014, Mr. Satya Kumar Yadav said his tenure as Chief Minister “established him as a beacon of hope” and helped “build public confidence in his leadership at the national level”.
