During his training, he also met several prominent leaders such as Vasant Gajendragadkar and Natalal Jagda, who played an important role in establishing the Gujarat chapter of the BJP in 1980. </p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:300/168;" src="https://cdn.sbisiali.com/news/images/4aae8214-31f5-4952-8f20-0b11c4c987fd.jpeg" alt="Narendra Modi"></figure><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">His rise to the Prime Minister of India</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Narendra Modi served as the Chief Minister of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014.
