Bhadrak, Sept 17: In a unique tribute to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his 75th birthday, a talented artist from Bhadrak district has created a miniature sculpture of the Prime Minister using a single piece of chalk. Standing at just 5 cm tall, the artwork took only three hours to complete and carries a touching message: “Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam” (A Tree in the Name of Mother).

The artist, Gopal Charan Samal, from Chudakuti village in the Dhamanagar block, has always had a deep passion for miniature art and sculpture. With only basic tools and a single piece of chalk, Samal skillfully sculpted a detailed likeness of the Prime Minister, demonstrating both his impressive artistry and his admiration for Modi.

The chalk sculpture has garnered praise from locals and is gaining attention on social media for its fine details and meaningful message. Despite the fragile nature of chalk, Samal managed to capture recognizable features of the Prime Minister, making the artwork both impressive and heartfelt.
