Jashodabon Modi is the wife of the Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi. She was born in January 1952. She is a retired school -teacher. They were married when they were young kids. She was 11, and he was 12. Their traditional marriage occurred when she was about 17 years old.

Narendra never accepted Jashodabon as his wife. He abandoned and went off into the Himalayas when he was 18, shortly after being formally married. He had been confronted with not legally accepting his marriage to Jashodabon. He has rebuffed these accusations. He did, however, give recognition to their wedding at a 2014 campaign.

Joshodabon has always acknowledged herself to be the wife of Narendra Modi. She has wanted to reunite with him. In 2014, Congress party politician Ajay Rai filed a lawsuit to be heard by the Allahabad High Court because Narendra had never given the permanent account record number of his wife, Jashodabon.

The correct answer to this question is Yes. This answer may come as a shock to many because, for years, Prime Minister Modi hid his marriage to the retired teacher Jashobaden Narendrabhai. They were married in 1968.

One of the reasons he may have hidden it was that it was not a marriage of his choice. Instead, it was a marriage that was arranged by their families, which is a common custom in India. It was not until 2014, when he began his campaign for Prime Minister, that he revealed that he had been married all of those years to Jashobaden Narendrabhai.

A lot of people are wondering if Narendra Modi is married, and this is not a surprise because he is one of the most followed world leaders right now. People actually become surprised when they learned that he has a wife because this is not something that he really talked about before he campaigned.

His wife’s name is Jashobaden Narendrabhai Mori. She is a retired Indian teacher, which makes her profession noble and respectable. They had an arranged marriage back when they were younger in the year 1968.

The only time that Narendra Modi acknowledged his marriage is back in 2014, probably because this is one of the things that was required for the campaign.

The correct answer to this question. Prime Minister Modi is married to a retried India teacher, whose name is Jashobaden Narendrabhai Modi. They have a marriage that is custom to other marriages in India because it is a fixed marriage.

This is a marriage that the family arranges. Narendra Modi and Jashobaden Narendrabhai Modi got married in 1968. Though that was their legal status, it took a while before Prime Minister Modi acknowledged the marriage.

He did not acknowledge the marriage until 2014 when he began his campaign for Prime Minister. Most were shocked to know he was able to keep his marriage a secret for so long.

Yes, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is married to Jashobaden Narendrabhai Modi. The wife of PM Modi is a retired Indian teacher. Like a lot of the marriages in India, their marriage is fixed. It was arranged by their families. The couple becomes married in the year 1968, but it took a long time before PM Modi actually acknowledged his marriage.

In fact, he did it in the year 2014 when he was already campaigning for the position. A lot of people were shocked that he was able to keep the marriage for about 50 years. The man reason why he kept it a secret is because of his campaign before wherein he said that he was single, and there is no one that he should be corrupt for.
