Shri Modi in a post on X stated:

"सामाजिक समरसता के प्रति आजीवन समर्पित रहे संत कबीरदास जी को उनकी जयंती पर मेरा कोटि-कोटि नमन। उनके दोहों में जहां शब्दों की सरलता है, वहीं भावों की प्रगाढ़ता भी है। इसलिए आज भी भारतीय जनमानस पर उनका गहरा प्रभाव है। समाज में फैली कुरीतियों को दूर करने में उनके योगदान को हमेशा श्रद्धापूर्वक स्मरण किया जाएगा।"
