Prime Minister Modi, in a heartfelt message on X (formerly Twitter), praised Shah for his tireless dedication to the country and his pivotal role in strengthening the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

"He is a hardworking leader, who has devoted his life towards strengthening the BJP. He has made a mark as an exceptional administrator and is making many efforts to realise the vision of a Viksit Bharat (Developed India). Praying for his long and healthy life," Modi said.

Praise from Party Leaders BJP President J.P. Nadda also lauded Shah's immense contribution to the party and the nation, highlighting his dedication, organisational expertise, and inspirational leadership. Nadda emphasized that Shah's role in bolstering India's internal security remains unforgettable.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh joined in the birthday greetings, applauding Shah's significant contributions to both India's development and the growth of the BJP. "His role in the development of India as well as the BJP is laudable," Singh remarked.

Greetings from Political Allies Shah’s birthday also saw well-wishes from BJP allies across the political spectrum. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N.

A Close Ally and Political Strategist Born in Gujarat, Amit Shah has been a trusted confidant of Prime Minister Modi for nearly four decades. Known for his sharp political mind and unyielding commitment, Shah has played a critical role in the success of several key government policies and BJP's electoral strategies.

His astute political strategies have been instrumental in transforming the BJP's fortunes. Under his leadership, the party has achieved numerous victories, even in situations where it seemed to lag behind its rivals. The most notable example was the BJP's unexpected win in the Haryana state elections, where exit polls predicted a Congress victory.

Since 2014, Shah has been credited with masterminding the BJP’s rise to dominance across various states and nationally, shaping its electoral strategy with remarkable success.

As Amit Shah enters his sixth decade, his contributions to the nation and his party continue to be lauded, reflecting his enduring impact on India's political landscape.
