NEW DELHI: Union home minister Amit Shah on Sunday alleged that ‘ Pakistan Zindabad ’ slogans were raised at Congress events and asked the leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi , "why he was silent."
Addressing a public rally in poll-bound Haryana 's Badshahpur, he said that the Congress and Rahul Gandhi used to talk about the restoration of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir but the fact is that "even the three generations of Rahul Gandhi cannot bring Article 370 back."
"I am seeing a new trend in Haryana. From Hathin to Thansesar and from Thansesar to Palwal, slogans of 'Pakistan Zindabad' are being raised on Congress stages. I want to ask Rahul Gandhi that when the leaders and workers of your party are raising the slogans of 'Pakistan Zindabad', why are you quiet? " Shah said in Badshahpur.
"The Congress is blinded by appeasement... Is Kashmir ours or not? Should Article 370 have been removed or not? Congress and Rahul Baba say that they will bring Article 370 back. Even the three generations of Rahul Gandhi cannot bring Article 370 back... The youth of Haryana has given a lot of sacrifices for protecting Kashmir and we will not let that go in vain," he added.
The Union minister, while addressing the rally, claimed that during the Congress party's rule in Haryana, they only procured wheat and paddy at the Minimum Support Price (MSP). In contrast, he highlighted that the BJP government has expanded the procurement to include 24 crops at MSP.
Shah also emphasized the substantial increase in MSP for various crops under the BJP government's tenure.
In response to Rahul Gandhi's recent statement about the Congress considering the abolition of reservations when "India is a fair place," Shah asserted that as long as the BJP, OBC, and SC exist, they would not allow the Congress party to interfere with the reservation system.
Furthermore, Shah compared the financial assistance provided to Haryana by the UPA government between 2004 and 2014, which amounted to Rs 41,000 crore, to the Modi government's allocation of Rs 2.92 lakh crore between 2014 and 2024.
Haryana is all set for its Assembly election which is scheduled to take place on October 5 and the votes will be counted on October 8.
