The Namo Book Festival in Varanasi is showcasing a large collection of books centred on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s political journey, governance and public life as he completes 25 years as the head of a government.
The two-day event is being held on October 7 and 8 at the Rudraksh International Cooperation and Convention Centre in Varanasi. The festival brings together books, discussions, documentaries and cultural presentations focused on different aspects of Prime Minister Modi’s public career.
Jitendra Singh Visits the Festival
Union Minister Jitendra Singh visited the Namo Book Festival in Varanasi and spoke about the significance of Prime Minister Modi completing 25 uninterrupted years as the head of a government.
Singh noted that Modi first served as Gujarat Chief Minister for more than 12 years before becoming Prime Minister. He described the uninterrupted period as an unusual milestone in a democratic system.
According to Singh, the occasion provides an opportunity to look at different aspects of Modi’s public life through books written by various authors.

The Namo Book Festival features hundreds of books covering multiple dimensions of Modi’s life and political career.
The collection includes works related to his early association with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, his tenure as Gujarat Chief Minister and his years as Prime Minister.

The Varanasi edition is the second edition of the Namo Book Fest Gen V initiative. The first edition was held in New Delhi, where more than 450 books on Modi were displayed across 10 categories.
Discussions and Cultural Programmes
Apart from the book exhibition, the event includes discussions involving young people, documentary screenings and cultural presentations.
The organisers have positioned the festival as a platform where books and ideas related to Modi’s public life can be discussed with younger audiences. Authors, policymakers, journalists, filmmakers and other personalities are also expected to participate in the Varanasi edition.
The programme is linked with the broader “Gen V” concept, which focuses on younger generations and conversations around India’s future and the vision of a developed India.
Focus on Governance and India’s Future
Jitendra Singh said the books displayed at the festival cover subjects ranging from governance reforms and foreign policy to India’s approach to terrorism and defence.
He also referred to the government’s development agenda and the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, saying these themes are reflected in works featured at the festival.
The minister described the event as an occasion to mark Modi’s 25 years at the helm of government and said it offered visitors an opportunity to explore his political and administrative journey through different publications.
Youth and Changing Aspirations
The Namo Book Festival also places emphasis on young people and their aspirations. Jitendra Singh said India’s youth population is talented and ambitious and highlighted the importance of opportunities for the younger generation.
The festival’s youth-focused discussions are intended to provide a space for conversations around India’s future, governance and development. The organisers have also described the event as an open platform for young people to engage with ideas and perspectives.
Varanasi Hosts the Second Edition
The choice of Varanasi is significant because it is Prime Minister Modi’s parliamentary constituency. The city is hosting the second edition after the inaugural event in Delhi.
The Namo Book Festival brings together a wide range of material related to Modi’s life and public career while combining the book exhibition with documentaries, cultural programmes and discussions.
The event is part of a series of programmes marking 25 years of Modi’s public service and his uninterrupted tenure as head of government, according to statements made by organisers and participating leaders.
