Union Home Minister and BJP leader Amit Shah on Sunday targeted Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and said a party won’t get votes if it opposes everything people like.
He quipped that it was beyond his capacity to make "Rahul baba" understand this “simple logic” because even Congress leaders had failed to make him understand it.
During his address at a gathering in a village near Ahmedabad city, Shah said, “During a recent debate in Lok Sabha, (Opposition Leader) Rahul Gandhi asked me a strange question: ‘Why does only his party lose elections every time’. Instead of asking people, he asked me. Rahul Baba, you will get the answer if you understand these two initiatives that I have launched here."
The senior BJP leader said Gandhi should not “get tired of losing” because “the Congress will definitely lose the upcoming assembly polls in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal”, PTI reported.
In the 2029 Lok Sabha elections too, the BJP will emerge victorious under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, he asserted.
“The reason behind our success is that people are connected with our principles. The Congress opposed Ram temple, surgical strike on terrorists, removal of Article 370, Uniform Civil Code, Act against triple talaq and our campaign to drive out illegal Bangladeshi infiltrators.
“Now tell me, if you oppose what people like, how will you get votes? But, it is beyond my capacity to make Rahul Baba understand such a simple logic because even people from the Congress have failed to make him understand it,” said Shah.
During the event at Navi Vanzar, he handed ‘sanad’ (land ownership certificates) to 173 residents. The beneficiaries were originally from Vanzar village on the banks of the Sabarmati river, but were resettled in Navi Vanzar after losing their homes, land and belongings in the devastating floods of 1973.
