Amit Shah Takes Swipe at Congress for Plundering the Country for Many Years

Amit Shah criticized the INDIA alliance during a speech, highlighting the construction of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya as a significant accomplishment. He accused the Congress of promoting dynastic politics, citing examples of individual leaders wanting to pass on positions to family members. Shah emphasized the importance of people’s decisions in determining political leadership, rather than reserved seats for specific families. Shah also criticized the Congress’s approach towards Article 370, praising Modi’s decision to abrogate it and accusing the Congress of not acting against it.

He asserted India’s claim over Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and expressed confidence in the government’s ability to combat terrorism. Additionally, he accused Congress of corruption, pledging to hold corrupt individuals accountable under Modi’s government. Furthermore, Shah praised the development in Uttar Pradesh under the “double engine government” of Modi and Yogi. He listed various infrastructural developments in the state, such as expressways, metro networks, medical colleges, a film city, and a toy park.

He also highlighted efforts to eliminate criminal elements in the state. The upcoming elections in Amethi and Rae Bareli, traditional strongholds of the Gandhi family, have garnered attention, with Rahul Gandhi entering the fray in Rae Bareli. In the 2019 elections, Congress lost Amethi, reducing their tally in Uttar Pradesh to just one seat. This statement has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.
