New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has extended birthday greetings to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who turned 45 today.
“Wishing the Congress Vice President, Shri Rahul Gandhi a Happy Birthday. I pray for his good health & long life,” Modi tweeted.
In the general elections last year, both leaders had squared off in a bitter contest that saw vicious attacks against each other.
Unlike previous birthdays, Rahul is set to celebrate the special day in India. On previous occasions, he has always travelled abroad to celebrate his birthday.
Congress workers have made elaborate arrangements to celebrate the occasion.
