Gandhinagar, May 21 (IBNS): Gearing up to take oath as the Prime Minister of India on May 26, Narendra Modi on Wednesday congratulated Anandiben Patel, who is all set to succeed the BJP strongman and become the first woman Chief Minister of Gujarat, and said the Indian state will 'scale new heights' in the coming years.

"Its a matter of immense pride & joy that Gujarat is getting its 1st woman CM in Anandiben Patel. My best wishes with her as she takes over," Modi tweeted.

"In Anandiben, we have a dedicated Party Karyakarta with a rich experience in administration. Gujarat will scale new heights in years to come," he said.

Modi on Wednesday  filed his resignation from the post of Gujarat Chief Minister to state Governor Kamla Beniwal.

"Received a very emotional farewell in the Vidhan Sabha. Members cutting across party lines offered their wishes," Modi posted on his Twitter homepage.

Modi-led the BJP and the NDA to a historic win against the Congress winning a whopping 336 seats in the recently concluded Lok Sabha election.
