90-year-old Hiraben blesses her son and India's next prime minister Narendra Modi at her home in Gandhinagar, in the western Indian state of Gujarat, Friday, May 16, 2014. The top official in Gujarat state for over a decade, Modi often contrasted his humble roots with the posh background of his main rival, 43-year-old Rahul Gandhi, heir to India's most powerful political dynasty. As the career politician led his party through a dazzling, high-tech election campaign, Modi called voters' attention to his mother riding a three-wheeled auto-rickshaw to cast her ballot earlier this month.

HOLD TO GO WITH STORY 'INDIA CONGRESS FAMILY POLITICS' BY NIRMALA GEORGE- In this Sunday, May 4, 2014 photo, India’s Congress party Vice President Rahul Gandhi, front, and his sister Priyanka Vadra campaign in Gandhi’s home constituency of Amethi, in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. The charisma of four generations of the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty that has steered the 128-year old Congress party has lost its shine, and the party appeared headed for its most crushing defeat ever when results from India's general elections are declared on May 16. During his campaign, Gandhi has tried to whip up some fire into his speeches, but the crowds are far from impressed. What has caught their attention and is drawing them to election rallies is the presence of Vadra who addresses party workers and public rallies with ease and a comfort-level that many have compared to that of her grandmother, Indira Gandhi.
