Modi writes to Karunanidhi, says he will rise up to the expectations of people

CHENNAI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has thanked DMK chief M Karunanidhi for wishing him a "satisfying" tenure.

A day after Modi was elected as BJP parliamentary leader and was invited by President Pranab Mukherjee to take oath as PM, Karunanidhi had written a letter to him congratulating him and wishing him a "satisfying prime ministerial tenure."


In his brief reply to Karunanidhi's letter, Modi said, "I thank you for your letter of felicitations. I am humbled by the faith reposed in us by the people. I am sure that we will rise up to the high expectations of the people". The DMK has released the copy of the letter, dated June 10.


"It is admirable that you have risen from a humble beginning through innate intelligence and hard and sincere work," Karunanidhi had written in his letter.


In December last year, Karunanidhi told TOI that Modi was a good friend, a good administrator and a good person. However, during the Lok Sabha election campaign, he said there was no place in Tamil Nadu for the BJP and Modi.
