“While I was coming here, I got the sad news that Mulayam Singh Yadav has passed away… His demise is a great loss to the country. I have a very special relationship with Mulayam Singh.. When we used to meet as chief ministers – he and I – we used to feel a sense of belonging,” the prime minister stated in Amod, in Gujarat’s Bharuch district, the place he laid the foundations of a number of Laid growth tasks.
When we labored as Chief Ministers of our respective states, I had many conversations with Mulayam Singh Yadav ji. The closeness continued and I used to be at all times trying ahead to listening to their ideas. His loss of life pains me. Condolences to his household and thousands and thousands of supporters. peace. pic.twitter.com/eWbJYoNfzU

“In 2014, when the BJP blessed me as its prime ministerial candidate, I had referred to as individuals from the opposition to hunt blessings with whom I had a relationship – although we had ideological variations. I keep in mind Mulayam Singh ji giving me two phrases of recommendation as a blessing – that is mine amaanat… In 2019, within the final Parliament session of the earlier authorities, Mulayam Singh stood on the ground of the House and stated one thing which is the largest blessing of my life. He had stated, “Modiji takes everyone along and I am sure he will win 2019 and become the Prime Minister again.” His coronary heart will need to have been so large that he continued to bless me so long as he was alive. And right this moment from the banks of the Narmada and on the soil of Gujarat, I pay my heartfelt tributes to her. I pray to God to offer energy to his household and supporters to face this loss.”
Yadav, who was three-time Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, died at a hospital on Monday on the age of 82.
