During his winter tour of Uttarakhand, Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami for his dynamic leadership and dedicated governance. The Prime Minister, known for his close observation of state-level developments, referred to CM Dhami as a “younger brother” and an “energetic Chief Minister,” acknowledging his efforts with repeated words of encouragement throughout the visit.
After concluding his address, as Chief Minister Dhami approached the Prime Minister, the two leaders exchanged a warm handshake, followed by a friendly pat on the back from PM Modi — a symbolic gesture that reflected both appreciation and confidence.
Chief Minister Dhami has recently drawn national attention for his swift decision-making and effective execution on several critical fronts. Be it the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) or successfully organizing the National Games, his leadership style has been recognized and lauded at the highest level.
Sources close to the administration noted that the Prime Minister’s encouraging remarks reflect the central leadership’s satisfaction with Uttarakhand’s direction under Dhami’s stewardship. The public appreciation from PM Modi has not only boosted the morale of the state leadership but also signaled growing synergy between the Centre and the state.
The visit underscored the strong political rapport between the two leaders and sent a clear message of mutual respect and shared vision for Uttarakhand’s development.
