New Delhi, Sep 17 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi should continue to serve when independent India turns 100, said industrialist Mukesh Ambani, while extending wishes on PM’s 75th birthday on Wednesday.

Ambani said that PM Modi’s efforts are working to turn India into a global superpower.

“I have never seen a leader who worked so tirelessly for a better future for India and Indians,” Ambani said.

“He first transformed Gujarat into an economic powerhouse. Now he is transforming the whole of India into a global superpower. I join all my 145 crore fellow Indians in wishing our Prime Minister a happy birthday and praying for his continuous good health. Jai Shri Krishna! Jai Hind!” he added.

Earlier, Kotak Mahindra Bank director Uday Kotak lauded PM Modi’s habit of learning from global best practices and adapting them for India to lead the country towards a developed nation.

According to Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman of the Aditya Birla Group, PM Modi always wants to know how the economy is doing and what should be done to get the private sector to invest more.
