After coming to power in May 2014, Modi had celebrated his birthday in Gujarat. Next year, on his 65th birthday, Modi went about his official duties and began the day visiting an exhibition commemorating 50 years of the 1965 Indo-Pak war in New Delhi.
The next year, he returned home and sought blessings of his mother on the special occasion as he turned 66. On his 67th birthday, he inaugurated the Sardar Sarovar Dam in Narmada district's Kevadia in Gujarat.
This will be the first birthday of the Prime Minister that he will spend outside Delhi or Gujarat since he came to power in 2014.
On Monday, Modi will visit Narur village, where he will interact with children of a primary school, aided by non-profit organisation "Room to Read". Later, he will interact with students of Kashi Vidyapeeth and children assisted by them on the premises of Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW).
On his 68th birthday, the prime minister will watch a 32-minute film called "Chalo Jeete Hain" with schoolchildren.
