Suddenly, she disappeared and her whereabouts are neither known nor available for the past many days,&#8221; it said.<\/p>\n<p>Modi had written Jashodaben&#8217;s name as his wife in the affidavit while filing his nomination papers in Vadodara, from where he is also contesting the Lok Sabha polls apart from Uttar Pradesh&#8217;s Varanasi constituency.<\/p>\n<p>The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader had so far remained silent on his marital status.<\/p>\n<p>Modi, in his earlier affidavits filed in the 2001, 2002, 2007 and 2012 assembly elections, did not reveal he was married.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;
