Modi, like every year, after fasting for nine days, performed 'Shastra Puja' (worship of weapons) at his home today on the occasion of Vijaya Dashmi, an official release said.
In the pictures released by the state information department, Modi was seen worshipping swords and guns.
"Greetings on Vijaya Dashmi. Joined "Shastra Puja" with our police and security personnel earlier today," Modi tweeted on micro-blogging site Twitter.
