Gandhinagar: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is on a two-day Gujarat visit for the Vibrant Summit, skipped his daily yoga session this morning to meet his mother Hiraba, who lives at Raisan village near here.
Through a tweet, Modi said he went to meet his mother early this morning and had breakfast together.
Skipped Yoga & went to meet mother. Before dawn had breakfast with her. Was great spending time together.

97-year-old Hiraba lives with Modi’s younger brother Pankaj Modi at Raisan village near the state capital.
Modi’s tweet was received warmly by many social media users but Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal seemed unconvinced by this as in a series of tweets hit out at the Prime Minister.
मैं अपनी माँ के साथ रहता हूँ, रोज़ उनका आशीर्वाद लेता हूँ लेकिन ढिंढोरा नहीं पीटता। मैं माँ को राजनीति के लिए बैंक की लाइन में भी नहीं लगाता https://t.co/CT243GCiaC

हिंदू धर्म और भारतीय संस्कृति कहती है कि आपको अपनी बूढ़ी माँ और धर्मपत्नी को अपने साथ रखना चाहिए। PM आवास बहुत बड़ा है, थोड़ा दिल बड़ा कीजिए https://t.co/CT243GTTzc
