Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mother Hiraba Modi passed away at the age of 100 in Ahmedabad on Friday.
She was admitted to the UN Mehta Institute of Cardiology and Research Centre on Wednesday morning due to some health issues. On Thursday, the hospital said she was “recovering”.
Soon after the announcement, PM Modi posted a heartfelt tribute on Twitter: “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.”
