From Vadnagar to 7 RCR: Modi's amazing journey

As a little child, no one expected him to climb the political ladder in such a fashionable manner. However, almost 65 years later, Narendra Modi will become the 14th prime minister of India. His climb was not an easy one. From the small village of Vadnagar in Gujarat, he first joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and served the organisation diligently. He then joined the BJP in 1987 and was handed the tasks of carrying out rallies. He was the instrumental force in ensuring that Atal Bihari Vajpayee became the prime minister in 1999. Rediff.com tries to piece Modi's life from childhood to the moment he grabbed headlines and showed promise of being the next prime minister -- the time he was elected as Gujarat's chief minister for the first time in 2001.
