PM Modi Becomes Second-Longest Serving Indian Prime Minister
Imagine India's Prime Minister is like the captain of a big team.
Narendra Modi has been captain for a long time, even longer than Indira Gandhi, who used to be Prime Minister before.
Only one captain served longer.
Modi has been the captain for a super long time and is not from the same party as the other captains.
He also won many games in a row when he was the leader of a smaller team before becoming the Prime Minister.
Narendra Modi became the second-longest serving Indian Prime Minister, surpassing Indira Gandhi.
Modi has served 4,078 days in office, starting May 26, 2014.
He is the longest-serving non-Congress Prime Minister.
Modi is the only leader to win six consecutive elections as party leader.
Modi served as Gujarat's Chief Minister from 2001 to 2014.
