NAVSARI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on a one-day go to to Gujarat, met his former college instructor in Navsari city on Friday.

After arriving right here to inaugurate Nirali Multi-speciality Hospital, Modi spent a while along with his former instructor from Vadnagar, Jagdish Nayak. A photograph of their assembly on the hospital premises went viral on social media.

Nayak (88), who now lives at Vyara in Tapi district and shuns publicity, taught Modi when the latter lived along with his household in Vadnagar city of Mehsana district.

“Though it was a short meeting, I do not have words to describe how I felt. His respect and feelings for me have not changed all these years,” Nayak advised reporters at his residence in Vyara later. His grandson Parth Nayak advised reporters that he referred to as the PMO as his grandfather needed to fulfill the PM.

“My grandfather wanted to meet Modi ji during his Navsari visit, so I called the PMO yesterday and sought an appointment. To my surprise, the PM called me back and talked with us. He is so humble and down to earth. I also met him today and learnt so many things from him,” Parth stated.
