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

Amit Shah slammed the INDIA alliance during a speech, stating that the Congress claims the Pran Prathishtha of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya was not done correctly, and warned that if they come into power, they will put a Babri lock on it. He criticized the Congress for engaging in dynastic politics and asserted that the people should decide who holds political seats, rather than it being reserved for certain families.

Shah also denounced the Congress over Article 370, emphasizing that Modi’s government abrogated it and halted terrorism in the country. He stressed that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir belongs to India and expressed no fear regarding the matter.

Additionally, he labeled the Congress as corrupt and claimed that the Modi government would imprison the corrupt individuals. Praising the double-engine government in Uttar Pradesh, Shah highlighted the state’s development under Modi’s leadership, referencing the establishment of expressways, a metro network, medical colleges, a film city, and a toy park.

He also lauded Yogi Ji for eliminating crime in the state. The focus then shifted to the upcoming electoral competition in Amethi and Raebareli, where the Gandhi family traditionally held influence, with Rahul Gandhi entering the fray in Rae Bareli and a family aide being fielded against Smriti Irani in Amethi.

Notably, Congress had only won two seats in Uttar Pradesh in 2014, which decreased to one in 2019 after losing Amethi. (Please note that except for the headline, this story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)
