I had interviewed them in 2019👇
As a kid, I had double joy of enjoying Sikh & Hindu cultures. I used to go inside lap of my maternal grandfather — who followed Sikhism — to do community service inside gurudwaras that taught me humility & would later join my grandmother to visit temples.
PM @narendramodi continues to win blessings of such faiths that have shaped his personality to bring recipe for victory in most ultimate phases of his life.
Tonight he will visit Kala bhairav in Varanasi to seek his blessings. That sums up Modi for you & his belongingness.

Is it a scam or did he make a faux pas that has now turned into hillarious meme on him?
Or is this big jibe by him at BJP’s Ayush Kendras?
