Chief Minister Bommai stated that PM Modi and his mother shared a model relationship. The demise is painful for all of us. The respect and honour shown by PM Modi towards his mother is inspirational, he said.
"We have all seen how Heeraben showered love on his son. PM Modi has stated many times that his mother is a simple and special person. His mother always saw him like his son, not as the CM or PM. This shows motherhood. She had imbibed principles, patriotism in PM Modi," CM Bommai stated.
