Last Updated:June 09, 2026, 22:19 IST

A resolution hailing Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who would become the longest-serving elected PM of India, is likely to be adopted at the meeting of the NDA.

The ruling BJP-National Democratic Alliance (NDA) bloc will meet on Wednesday to celebrate its government completing 12 years.

A resolution hailing Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who would become the longest-serving elected PM of India, is likely to be adopted at the meeting of the NDA, news agency PTI reported, citing sources.

Prime Minister Modi is expected to address the NDA conclave after the resolution is passed, according to sources.

On June 10, PM Modi will break the record of the first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru.  Modi will cross the record of Nehru’s 4,399 days in power as an elected prime minister following the 1952 general elections. Nehru’s stint from 1947 to 1952 was as head of an interim government as elections were not held till 1952.

Former prime minister Indira Gandhi had a tenure of 14 years, more than that of Modi, but her prime ministership was not uninterrupted.

By surpassing Nehru’s 4,399-day record, Modi becomes the longest-serving elected prime minister of India, the sources said.

On May 26, 2014, PM Modi took charge as India’s prime minister with a landslide victory. He got re-elected with a bigger mandate in 2019 and his second term began on May 30 of the same year. His third consecutive term started on June 9, 2024 but without BJP in majority.

All About NDA Meet

The NDA meeting, to be held at Bharat Mandapam, will be attended by chief ministers and deputy chief ministers of all 22 NDA governed states and Union Territories, besides the leaders of all alliance constituents.

The meeting is likely to bring together around 75 senior leaders representing 35 NDA constituent parties, including chief ministers, deputy chief ministers, party presidents and other senior functionaries of the alliance.

The meeting will be chaired by BJP president Nitin Nabin. Senior BJP leaders, including Union ministers Rajnath Singh, Amit Shah, Nitin Gadkari, J P Nadda and Shivraj Singh Chouhan, will attend the meeting, sources privy to the development said.

Union ministers belonging to the NDA constituents — K Ram Mohan Naidu (TDP), Rajiv Ranjan Singh (JDU), H D Kumaraswamy (JDS) and Anupriya Patel (Apna Dal-Soneylal) — are also likely to attend the meeting.

The leaders of NDA, and the central and state governments will exchange perspectives and best practices relating to boosting ‘Ease of Living’, ‘Ease of Doing Business’ and how to bring further reforms to realise the shared dream of a ‘Viksit Bharat’ by 2047, the sources said.

The conclave is also expected to showcase the unity and collective strength of the NDA, with leaders from across the country coming together to acknowledge Prime Minister Modi’s contribution to governance, development and national leadership over the past decade, the sources said.

The meeting will focus on reviewing various national development programmes, infrastructure programmes and the Modi government’s vision to transform the nation into a developed country by 2047.

The meeting is likely to deliberate on how to bring smooth synergy between the states and the Centre on the ongoing developmental schemes.
