In a revealing conversation with social media influencer Ankit Baiyanpuria, Modi shared some intimate details about his daily routine. Despite the immense responsibilities of running a nation, he follows a stringent schedule. "The Prime Minister mentioned that he often struggles with timely meals and adequate sleep," Baiyanpuria recounted. "But he also noted, if the country needs to function smoothly, someone has to work tirelessly. And as the leader, that's his role."

Union Minister L Murugan further elaborated on Modi's regimen, stating that the Prime Minister typically sleeps only 3.5 hours each night and adheres to a rule of not eating after 6 p.m. “His routine is both surprising and inspiring. Modi Ji's dedication to his health is evident even amidst his hectic work schedule,” Murugan said, recalling their recent lunch with the PM.

Despite starting his days at 4 a.m. and often working late into the night, Modi is resolute about his fitness. His mornings, which were a staple during his tenure as Chief Minister in Gandhinagar, begin with a walk—a practice he continues to this day. His commitment to yoga, surya namaskar (sun salutations), and meditation are integral to his wellness routine, keeping him both energized and mentally sharp.

Modi's rigorous schedule reflects his admiration for historical figures like Benjamin Franklin, whose disciplined approach to work and life Modi seeks to emulate. Franklin's structured days included early mornings dedicated to self-improvement and meticulous planning, followed by focused work and periods of reflection. Modi’s routine mirrors this discipline: he starts his day with the intention of contributing positively and follows a carefully balanced schedule that includes work, self-care, and rest.

As Modi marks this milestone birthday, his lifestyle serves as a testament to the power of dedication and structured living. His practices not only enhance his personal well-being but also underscore his unwavering commitment to his role as Prime Minister.
