Some Twitterati pointed out that Shri Modi is the latest among the only few such as Gandhiji, Sardar Patel, Lal Bahadur Shastri ji and a few others who were previously on the cover. Many see it as an example of the world taking note of Gujarat's model of development and the motto of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas'.
