Amit Shah on Thursday took swipe at Rahul Gandhi and Lalu Prasad Yadav, accusing them of supporting infiltrators and warning of a return to ‘jungle raj’ if the opposition wins. Shah asserted the BJP-NDA’s commitment to making Bihar ‘infiltrator-free’ and highlighted PM Modi’s decisive action against terrorism, contrasting it with past Congress governments. NEW DELHI: Union home minister Amit Shah on Thursday launched a sharp attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and RJD chief Lalu Yadav, accusing them of “welcoming infiltrators” and of failing Bihar when in power.Addressing multiple election rallies in Bihar, Shah said the assembly polls are a fight to make the state “infiltrator-free,” and claimed that only the pairing of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and chief minister Nitish Kumar can prevent a return of “jungle raj.”Mocking the former Bihar CM and leader of opposition in Lok Sabha, Shah claimed, “PM Modi worked to establish the Makhana Board… Can Lalu chacha create a Makhana Board? Can Rahul do it? If they come to power, a ‘Ghuspatiya Board’ will be formed…” ‘Lalu & Rahul say welcome infiltrators’Shah further alleged that Lalu and Rahul were trying to clear the path for infiltrators, questioning whether such individuals should remain on Bihar’s voter rolls. He accused both leaders of opposing efforts to remove infiltrators from the state’s lists.He asserted the BJP and NDA would not only cleanse Benipatti and Madhubani but would “root out” infiltrators across the country.”Should infiltrators be removed from Bihar’s voter list or not? Lalu and Rahul say, ‘welcome the infiltrators.’ To protect them, Lalu’s son (RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav) and Rahul go on yatras. Lalu and Rahul, listen carefully, the BJP and NDA government will not only remove infiltrators from Benipatti and Madhubani, but will root them out from across the entire country,” he alleged.’14th Nov Lalu & Rahul’s parties will be wiped out’Shah claimed, “Today, I’ve come to my thirty-third destination. I’ve toured all of Bihar. Do you want to know what the results will be on the 14th?”He continued that, “On 14th November, during the counting of votes, Lalu and Rahul’s parties will be wiped out…Once again, NDA government will be formed. But remember, if you mistakenly press any button other than the lotus (BJP symbol) or the arrow (JD-U symbol), then ‘Jungle Raj’ will return, just in a new disguise and new clothes….”‘PM to build a defence corridor in Mithila’He also attacked the previous Congress government over handling of terrorism, alleging lax action then, while praising recent operations under PM Modi.The Union minister said, “During the Congress regime, under the Sonia-Manmohan regime, Pakistani terrorists would come, detonate bombs and leave. No action would be taken against them. Instead, they were treated to biryani. Just recently, our men were killed in Pahalgam. PM Modi, in just 20 days, launched Operation Sindoor, in which we entered Pakistan’s home and wiped out the terrorists… Now, if terrorists fire bullets, they will be answered with shells…”Shah further announced plans for a defence-manufacturing corridor in Mithila, saying “PM Modi is going to build a defence corridor in Mithila. Now, every shell that hits Pakistan will be made in my Mithila region.”About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.
