New Delhi, Oct 16 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday wished Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik on his birthday.

"Best wishes to Odisha CM Shri Naveen Patnaik Ji on his birthday. Naveen Ji is one of India’s senior-most leaders who has been serving the people of Odisha for many years. May he lead a long and healthy life. @Naveen_Odisha," Modi tweeted.

However, the CM is no celebrating the occasion as a mark of expressing solidarity to the people affected by Cyclone Titli and subsequent floods in some parts of the east Indian state.

He has reportedly urged party workers not to host any function on the day.

The CM turned 72.
