Event Summary

Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) headquarters in Nagpur to signal his retirement, citing a supposed age-75 retirement policy for some leaders and Narendra Modi's upcoming 75th birthday. India — Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and senior Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Suresh 'Bhaiyyaji' Joshi dismissed these claims, asserting that Narendra Modi would continue to lead India for many years and would be Prime Minister of India again in 2029. Narendra Modi's visit to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh headquarters was his first in 11 years as Prime Minister of India, where he paid tribute to its founder.
