Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday wished Congress president Sonia Gandhi on her 69th birthday.
"Best wishes to Congress President Sonia Gandhi on her birthday. May Almighty bless her with a long and healthy life," Modi tweeted.
Gandhi, however, has decided not to celebrate her birthday in view of the terror strikes in Jammu and Kashmir and and Maoist attacks in Chhattisgarh.
"In view of the tragic terror/naxal attacks in J&K and Chhattisgarh, Sonia Gandhi has asked Congressmen not to celebrate her birthday," the party said in a tweet Monday.
Sonia Gandhi was born Dec 9, 1946, in Italy.
