Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached the residence of Lal Krishna Advani to wish him on his birthday. Modi was accompanied by Defense Minister Rajnath Singh. Veteran leader Advani turned 95 today.
LK Advani, considered the architect of the party’s rise as a major national force in the 90s and a key figure in the Ayodhya Ram Mandir movement, is one of the co-founders of the Saffron party and has been its longest-serving president.
Home Minister Amit Shah also wished LK Advani on his birthday and said, “Advani ji, with his relentless efforts, strengthened the party organisation across the country and also made invaluable contribution to the country’s development while being part of the government".

Born in 1927 in Karachi, now part of Pakistan, Advani joined the RSS at a young age and later worked for Jana Sangh where he made a mark with his organisational abilities.
He was a founding member of the BJP in 1980 and was its face along with former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee for several decades. A monumental turn in national politics was Advani’s ‘Rath Yatra’ in 1990 in support of building the Ram temple in Ayodhya at a site believed to be the birth place of Lord Ram.
The Rath Yatra led by Advani marked the unstoppable rise of the party to power.
