Amit Shah seeks another term for BJP in Uttarakhand

GBNEWS24DESK//

India’s Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday (Oct 30) said Uttarakhand has taken big strides in terms of development due to the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

He also sought another mandate for the BJP in the coming elections to spur the state further on the path of development under the leadership of Narendra Modi, reports PTI.

Launching his party’s poll campaign in Uttarakhand at a public rally, Shah said Modi brought road and rail infrastructure development projects worth Rs 85,000 crore during his tenure.

“Congress was in power at the Centre for 10 years under the leadership of Manmohan Singh. What did it do for Uttarakhand during the period? It should tell the people of the state,” he said.

Advising people not to make any mistake with their choice in the Assembly polls in Uttarakhand early next year, Shah asked them to give another opportunity to the Modi-Dhami team to bring prosperity to every home.

He said if people went wrong in their decision this time, a corrupt government will be back in power in the state.

The Congress cannot do anything for the people of the state, he said, describing it as a party which is “visible only at the time of elections holding dharnas, demonstrations and press conferences.”

Shah said the Congress believes in appeasement and recalled how Muslims were allowed to offer namaz in the middle of highways on Fridays during the Congress rule in Uttarakhand.

He said Modi can understand the problems of the poor, his heart aches for them.
