New Delhi, June 19 (IBNS): On Rahul Gandhi's 49th birthday, the Congress president exchanged Twitter greeting with Narendra Modi after the Prime Minister wished him on the special day of the year.

In the morning, Narendra Modi wished Gandhi on his birthday hoped he enjoyed “good health and a long life”.

Modi tweeted: "Best wishes to Shri @RahulGandhi on his birthday. May he be blessed with good health and a long life."

Gandhi was quick in replying: "Thank you for your greetings @narendramodi ji. I appreciate them."

Gandhi took oath as the Lok Sabha member on Monday.

Under his leadership, the Congress received a jolt in the Lok Sabha polls this time.

The grand old party of the country managed to win only 51 seats.

Rahul Gandhi himself lost from Uttar Pradesh's Amethi seat.

Rahul won from Amethi three times earlier.

He was defeated by Union Minister Smriti Irani this time.

However, Rahul decision to contest Wayanad helped him as he won the polls from the southern constituency.
