PM Narendra Modi Surpasses Indira Gandhi to Become India’s Second Longest-Serving Prime Minister

On July 25, 2025, Prime Minister Narendra Modi achieved a historic political milestone by completing 4,078 consecutive days in office, officially surpassing former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi’s record of 4,077 days (January 24, 1966 – March 24, 1977). This uninterrupted tenure now positions PM Modi as the second longest-serving Prime Minister in India’s history—only behind Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.

This moment is not just about longevity—it underscores a remarkable journey of leadership, transformation, and electoral dominance.

 Key Milestones of PM Modi’s Tenure:

  • First and only PM born after Independence.

  • Longest-serving non-Congress Prime Minister.

  • Longest-serving Prime Minister from a non-Hindi-speaking state.

  • First non-Congress leader to complete two full terms as Prime Minister.

  • Only non-Congress PM to win back-to-back majorities in Lok Sabha elections (2014, 2019, 2024).

  • First PM since Indira Gandhi (1971) to return to power with a full majority.

  • Only PM besides Jawaharlal Nehru to lead a party to three consecutive general election victories.

  • Only Indian leader (PM or CM) to win six consecutive elections:

    • Gujarat: 2002, 2007, 2012

    • Lok Sabha: 2014, 2019, 2024

This political journey marks nearly 24 years of uninterrupted leadership at the state and national levels—a legacy shaped by consistent voter trust and strategic electoral success.

 From Vadnagar to New Delhi: A Transformational Journey

Born in Vadnagar, Gujarat, to a humble family, Narendra Modi helped his father sell tea at a local railway station. His rise through the RSS and then the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is an extraordinary story of ambition, discipline, and deep-rooted connection with the grassroots.

Before taking charge as Prime Minister in 2014, Modi served as the Chief Minister of Gujarat for over a decade, driving state-wide development that became a blueprint for his national campaign. His leadership has consistently projected India as a confident and assertive power on the global stage.

 A Legacy Still in Motion

PM Modi’s uninterrupted tenure reflects not just political resilience but also his ability to adapt, communicate, and connect with the evolving aspirations of the Indian electorate. As he enters this record-breaking phase, political analysts and citizens alike are watching how he will shape the remaining years of his third term.

This achievement further cements Narendra Modi’s place among India’s most impactful political leaders, not just in terms of duration, but influence, ideology, and the ability to command electoral trust at a national scale.
