Narendra Modi not the only PM to also serve as CM?

In my recent blog, I discussed how Narendra Modi, the current Prime Minister of India, isn't the only one who has also served as a Chief Minister. There are other leaders who have walked this path before him, highlighting the fact that state leadership can often pave the way to national leadership. This dual experience of Modi, as a former Chief Minister and now a Prime Minister, offers a unique perspective on governance at both state and national levels. However, it's crucial to remember that each leadership role comes with its own challenges and opportunities. Overall, the pattern of CMs becoming PMs is not just limited to Modi, but rather a broader political phenomenon in India.
