He said, "After coming back from the Himalayas, I knew that I wanted my life to be one that is lived in the service of others. Within a short span of returning, I left for Ahmedabad. It was my first brush with living in a big city – the pace of life was very different. I began my time there by occasionally helping my uncle at his canteen."

The next phase of life revolved around his entry into RSS. PM Modi narrated his experiences as a full-time Pracharak in which he garnered ample experience by interacting with people from 'different walks of life' and took turns to do the chorus at RSS office. 

He said, "Eventually, I became a full-time Pracharak of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. There, I got the opportunity to interact with people from different walks of life, which entailed a wide range of work. We all took turns to clean the RSS office, prepare tea and food for colleagues and clean utensils."
