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

Amit Shah, in his criticism of the INDIA alliance, expressed his satisfaction with the construction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya after waiting for a long time. He dismissed the Congress’s claims that the Pran Prathishtha had not been conducted in the right manner, asserting that if the Congress were to come into power, they would put a Babri lock on it.

Shah also accused the Congress of engaging in dynastic politics, citing examples such as Lalu Prasad Yadav’s desire for his son to become CM, Mamata Banerjee’s similar aspirations for her nephew, and Sonia Gandhi’s wish for her son Rahul Gandhi to become Prime Minister. He emphasized that the decision should be in the hands of the people, rejecting the notion of reserved seats for a specific family.

Shah criticized the Congress for its inaction regarding Article 370, contrasting this with the decisive action taken by Prime Minister Modi to abrogate it. He praised the government’s efforts in countering terrorism and claimed that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir also belongs to India.

Shah labeled the Congress as corrupt, alleging that they have looted the country for many years, and promised that the Modi government would prosecute the corrupt. Furthermore, he commended the double engine government in Uttar Pradesh, highlighting the development that has taken place under Modi’s leadership.

He mentioned the construction of 14 expressways, a metro network, medical colleges, a film city, and a toy park, attributing these accomplishments to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s efforts in eradicating criminal elements from the state. The text also touches upon the significance of Amethi and Raebareli as constituencies historically associated with the Gandhi family.

It notes that Rahul Gandhi has entered the fray in Raebareli, while the family’s close aide has been fielded against Smriti Irani in Amethi. The Congress’ declining electoral performance in Uttar Pradesh, with its seat count reducing from 2 to 1 in 2019, is also highlighted.
