'Ghuspatiya Bachao Yatra': Amit Shah says Rahul Gandhi wants infiltrators to stay in India's voter lists

Union Home Minister Amit Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of wanting to keep infiltrators in India's voting lists and win the elections with their help.

"Rahul Baba has just started his 'Ghuspatiya Bachao Yatra'... Today, I have come to this platform to tell the people of the country to recognise these people. They want infiltrators to remain on our voter lists because they do not trust the people of India and want to win elections on the basis of infiltrators. The BJP supports the SIR and the campaign to clear the voter lists," he said.

Further, he also mocked Rahul Gandhi on his earlier comments on Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. "Be it securing the country's borders, surgical strikes, air strikes, and finally giving a befitting reply to Pakistan through Operation Sindoor, PM Modi has done it all. For years, we all wanted a Ram Mandir to be built in Ayodhya... Rahul Baba used to mock the BJP, saying, 'Mandir vahi banayenge lekin tithi nahi batayenge'. The temple has been built, Ram Lalla has been installed, and people all over the world are rejoicing today. Be it building the Kashi Vishwanath corridor, or starting the work of rebuilding the Somnath temple with gold, every such issue that was stuck for years, PM Modi solved it in a jiffy and increased the confidence of the people of the country," he said.

Shah also spoke about the abrogation of Article 370. "For years, the workers of the BJP had desired the removal of Article 370. While our voices were loud, we also wondered how this would be possible. The country elected Modi ji as Prime Minister for the second time and abolished Article 370. Working under Modi's leadership for years, I have seen that he is the only person in the country who has never taken a vacation... Because of this, the 11th-ranked economy that Manmohan Singh left behind has now reached the fourth position. People of Delhi, be prepared; by 2027, we will have become the third-largest economy in the world..." he added.
