In a tweet, Modi extended his birthday greetings to Palaniswami, wishing him good health. “Greetings to Tamil Nadu CM Thiru Edappadi K Palaniswami Ji on his birthday. May Almighty bless him with good health and a long life in service of people. @CMOTamilNadu,” the Prime Minister tweeted.
The chief minister, known as EPS, thanked Modi and tweeted, “Thank you so much for your wishes and positive words @narendramodi ji.”
Thackeray also took to Twitter to greet his Tamil Nadu counterpart. “Hearty birthday greetings to the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami ji. May this day be the start of a year filled with good luck, good health and much happiness,” he said in a tweet.
Telangana Governor Dr Tamilisai Soundararajan, BJP state President L Murugan and PMK founder S Ramadoss also greeted Palaniswami.
