Amit Shah Takes Swipe at Congress for “Looting the Country for Many Years

Amit Shah, in his address, criticized the INDIA alliance, highlighting various issues. He started by talking about the construction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya and how the Congress has questioned the legitimacy of its Pran Prathishtha.

Shah also accused the Congress of engaging in dynastic politics, citing examples of leaders like Lalu Yadav, Mamata Banerjee, and Sonia Gandhi. He emphasized that the power should ultimately rest with the people rather than being reserved for specific families.

Shah also addressed the issue of Article 370, blaming the Congress for not acting against it and praising Modi for abrogating it. He asserted that this move has helped in curbing terrorism and reclaiming Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.

Characterizing the Congress as corrupt, Shah voiced the government’s intention to hold the corrupt accountable and bring them to justice. He then praised the progress made in Uttar Pradesh under the leadership of Modi and Yogi Adityanath, highlighting developments such as expressways, a metro network, medical colleges, a film city, and a toy park.

The article also mentions that Amethi and Raebareli, known as strongholds of the Gandhi family, are once again in the spotlight as Rahul Gandhi has entered the fray in Rae Bareli, and Kishori Lal Sharma, a close aide to the family, has been fielded against Smriti Irani in Amethi. This move follows the Congress’s declining performance in Uttar Pradesh, winning only two seats in 2014, which decreased to just one in 2019 after losing Amethi.
