Modi in 2015

Narendra Modi (born 17 September 1950) is the Prime Minister of India. He has served in the position since 2014, when he won a historic landslide election[1] in which his party received more votes than any other party in the world had ever received in history.[2] He served as the Chief Minister of the Indian state of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014. In 2017, his party, the conservative BJP, won another astounding victory, giving the party complete political control over India.[3][4] While not having a Chrisitan foundation as a Hindu, Modi has taken more conservative and free market political positions.[5]

One of his most notable decisions as Prime Minister was to declare worthless 500–1000 Rupee notes in order to combat the black market.[6]

The mainstream media has compared Modi and his policies to United States President Donald Trump.[7] He has also been compared to the earlier U.S. President Ronald Reagan.[8]
