In 1967, he had completed his higher secondary education in Vadnagar. At the age of 8 years, he joined Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). He doesn’t want to marry so he left home at the age of 17 and travelled across the country for the next two years.

There, Modi lived with his uncle, who worked in the canteen at the Gujarat State Road Transport Corporation.
