Is numerical age more important for a capable politician involved in governance or biological age? This is now becoming a hot topic in Indian politics. Therefore, there is a need for more intellectual thinking and analysis on this very deeply.
The purpose of presenting this topic here is that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s numerical age is being given too much importance, ignoring the enthusiasm of his biological age, which is full of vitality. What is the reason for this? The reason is very clear, that is, he has had enough, now bid farewell to the post of Prime Minister.
Every now and then, a little ghostly storm arises regarding Prime Minister Modi’s numerical age, and he immediately goes into a cold storage as if he has stopped after a storm. But this time, he has started a serious effort to rise like a storm, not a ghostly storm.
Recently, the words of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat, who took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, regarding this age-old practice, have created a big stir in national politics. “Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat has said that leaders should retire at the age of 75 and give a chance to the new generation. He made these comments at a book launch event in Nagpur. Bhagwat quoted former RSS leader Moropan Pingle as saying that being honoured with a shawl at the age of 75 means that you have become old, so retire now and give a chance to others.
The statement has created a political controversy because both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Mohan Bhagwat will complete 75 years in September 2025. Modi will be 75 on September 17 and Bhagwat on September 11.
Mohan Bhagwat’s search for a cure for this opposition party is like looking for a cure. On Modi The opposition parties, having got a free base to attack, have started using this age weapon to further pressure Modi to retire from the post of Prime Minister. The opposition parties, especially the Congress, have said that this statement is a hint about Modi’s retirement. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said on social media that the RSS chief has reminded Modi to return home. But Modi can also remind Bhagwat that he is also reaching the age of 75.
Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut also said that Modi had earlier forced senior BJP leaders LK Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi and Yashwant Singh to retire after the age of 75. He raised the question of whether Modi is applying this rule to himself or not. ” Karnataka Congress MLA Belur Gopalakrishna added more weight to Mohan Bhagwat’s statement and said that if Mohan Bhagwat’s principles are right, then Modi should leave the post. Along with this, he has hinted, as if by biting his nails, that Nitish Gadkari should become the Prime Minister as an alternative to Modi.
Apart from Mohan Bhagwat, Congress and other staunch anti-Modi leaders also raised the issue of Modi’s age, but did not raise the issue of age discrimination. If they had raised this, it would have been clear who is really called age.
There are two types of age. One is Numerical age, which is calculated by increasing one from the date of birth every year.
The other is Biological age. This can be seen as a person’s age increasing or decreasing each year. According to biological age, someone may look ten to fifteen years younger or ten to fifteen years older than their numerical age.
Numerical age and biological age are two different concepts. Numerical age refers to the number of years since birth, while biological age refers to the actual condition of a person’s body cells and tissues, which depends on health and lifestyle. In other words, a person’s biological age tells you how healthy their body is from the inside, while their numerical age is simply the number of years since birth.
Numerical/chronological age – This is calculated from a person’s date of birth and is expressed in years, months, and days.
This is a fixed number and is usually used in official documents.
This is a general measure of your age, but it does not reflect the actual condition of your body.
Biological age – This refers to the age of your body cells and tissues.
It is influenced by factors such as your lifestyle, diet, exercise, stress, and genetics.
This can vary from person to person, even if their chronological age is the same.
With a healthy lifestyle and proper care, biological age can be reduced.
For example- a person may be 50 years old, but if he follows a healthy lifestyle, his biological age may be that of a 40-year-old.
Another person may be 50 years old, but if he follows an unhealthy lifestyle, his biological age may be that of a 60-year-old.
Therefore, biological age is a more accurate measure that reflects your health and lifestyle status, while numerical age is just a number.
Now that we have discussed the age difference analytically, it is no longer necessary to understand what age is really called and who is it for.
Along with that, it is also easy to understand how old Prime Minister Narendra Modi is and in what age group he should be placed. Modi’s numerical age may be 75, but he does not have any signs of the old age of 75 years. Rather, he has the enthusiasm and energy of a thirty-five or thirty-six year old. That is why he is fit and healthy even today. He does not have any laziness to work. Rather, he has tremendous mental strength and physical fitness to work.
The Prime Minister should be such a person who does not sit in a chair and do not slouch, does not walk with his legs crossed or does not walk with a stick or does not walk in slow motion. Even so, the king will not be ruling from a wheelchair. A person who is not as slow as a tortoise, but as agile as a lion and as agile as a horse should hold a responsible position like the Prime Minister. Then the country will run on the highway of progress. Even at this age, Modi has the qualities, characteristics and work ethic to give the country a horse-like pace on the highway of progress. Currently, energetic politicians like him are rare in the country. Even at this age, how many young men can go to the Himalayas and do penance, work despite fasting for nine days during Navratri and sleep for three hours at night and work for the remaining 21 hours non-stop? This is Modi’s specialty. That is why India has achieved 111 years of progress in 11 years. Modi’s achievements are being worked on, that too at a horse-like pace.
Despite all this, what is the reason for being anxious about Modi’s farewell speech? Rather, we should be welcomed.
The country needs a Prime Minister who works, not a Prime Minister who does not sleep. The country needs a Prime Minister who does not eat or feed. The country needs a Prime Minister who works like a 35-year-old, not a 100-year-old, at the age of 75. If Modi has all these qualities, then he should continue from that post without resigning.
Finally, we are saying the main thing that we have said that Modi will not retire from the post of Prime Minister. Only the voters who have supported the leadership of the people of India and have been deposing him and his party, have given the power to depose Modi. Only the people of India can change Modi if they want. The people are silent in this matter and have supported Modi three times and have been deposing him from power, so there is no point in us babble. If the people want Modi even for 2029, then that will be the final. After the final, there is no more nal, no fal. Therefore, we should not get involved in the age puzzle and wait for the results of 2029. If the public rejects Modi in 2029, then it would be appropriate to demand Modi’s retirement at that time. And if the public supports Modi at that time, then ….. Then whoever understands
