PM Modi's heartfelt note on his mother

On December 30 PM Narendra Modi's mother Heeraben Modi died at 100.

"A glorious century rests at the feet of God... In Maa I have always felt that trinity, which contains the journey of an ascetic, the symbol of a selfless Karmayogi and a life committed to values," Modi wrote on Twitter

He shouldered her bier along with his brothers.

The PM performed his mother's last rites.

In June this year, he wrote a blog on his mother where he said, My mother is simple— and extraordinary'

Heeraben Modi used to live with PM's younger brother, Pankaj Modi, at Raysan village near Gandhinagar.

On Tuesday she was admitted to UN Mehta Institute of Cardiology & Research Centre in Ahmedabad.
