UNION Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah on Saturday accused Congress and Shiv Sena UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray of surviving in politics by turning infiltrators into a vote bank. However, he clarified that India is not a ‘Dharamshala’ and under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, every aspect of India’s security is being ensured. Addressing a public rally in Kolhapur, Maharashtra, HM Shah said that over the course of 12 years, under the leadership of the Prime Minister, the Bharatiya Janata Party and the NDA have expanded from Somnath to Ganga Sagar and across the entire country.

 

“People used to say that you would reach every part of the country, but what about West Bengal? However, in the last election, the people of West Bengal have also bestowed their blessings and support upon the Bharatiya Janata Party. Bengal has also blessed the BJP. The people of Bengal have given us their blessings, and PM Modi and the BJP owe a debt to the people of Bengal,” he added. “PM Modi has set the record for being the longest-serving elected Prime Minister of the country. Whenever the history of independent India is written, these 12 years will be remembered for building a Viksit Bharat, the cultural renaissance of India, and the country’s growing prestige across the world,” said HM Shah.
