Udupi, Apr 25: Senior RSS leader H Somashekhar Bhatt received a call from Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday enquiring about his health.
Bhatt got emotional hearing the Prime Minister's voice at the other end, family sources said.
The Prime Minister called at 8.30 AM and began the conversation with 'Somashekharji' and spoke for about six minutes.
The 85-year-old veteran recalled how the Jana Sangh came to power in Udupi municipality under the leadership of V S Acharya in 1968 and about his association with the Sangh Parivar through the decades and his imprisonment during the Emergency.
Bhatt, former Udupi municipality president, later said it was a rare honour for him.
"I am very glad that PM Modi called and spoke to me. I shared the experience of meeting him at the Jaipur session.
Asked to take care of health and expressed concern," he said.
The Prime Minister has been calling senior functionaries of the party who worked for the Sangh Parivar in the time of adversities to build up the BJP in its present form and seeking advice from them.
He had also called in recent days former MLA Ram Bhat who was elected from Puttur in Dakshina Kannada and D H Shankar Murthy, who was former chairman of the state legislative council, BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel tweeted.
