Sounding the poll bugle, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday highlighted the BJP government’s achievements across various fronts, including the abrogation of Article 370, surgical strikes, and economic progress.
He was speaking during the BJP’s ‘Vijay Sankalp Shankhnaad’ rally in Chhattisgarh.
“The long-standing dilemma over Rama’s temple in Ayodhya has found its resolution. Congress, over 75 years, failed to resolve the lingering issues, but Modi has,” asserted Shah, promising electoral victories for the BJP. Shah articulated the BJP’s ambitious goal of positioning India as a global leader under Modi’s leadership, envisioning a future where the nation serves as a beacon of enlightenment across the globe.

Assuring the electorate, Shah pledged, “Every guarantee Modi makes will be honored,” highlighting substantial advancements in healthcare infrastructure and the construction of over 3.8 million toilets in Chhattisgarh.
Amit Shah reiterated India’s unwavering stance against terrorism, citing surgical strikes and the revocation of Article 370 in Kashmir as testament to the nation’s resolve. He also commended India’s strides in space exploration, solidifying its position as the third-largest space power globally.
Addressing the menace of Maoist insurgency, Shah applauded government efforts, affirming that initiatives have spurred development from Bastar to Bilaspur. Reaffirming welfare commitments, Shah promised monthly grain allocations, distribution of LPG cylinders, and housing provisions under the PM Awas Yojana.
Encouraging support for PM Modi’s leadership, Shah highlighted India’s robust economic growth under his tenure, urging the nation to repose faith in Modi’s vision for propelling India to global economic prominence.
Earlier in the day, Shah chaired a Lok Sabha election meeting in Kondagaon district, focusing on the Bastar cluster, and received a warm welcome at Raipur airport from Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai and Deputy CM Vijay Sharma.
Shah passionately urged Chhattisgarh residents to secure all 11 Lok Sabha seats for the BJP, citing past electoral mandates. In 2014, the BJP secured 10 out of 11 seats, and in 2019, it won 9 seats, reflecting the state’s steadfast support.
As Chhattisgarh braces for significant electoral battles, the BJP’s pursuit of a sweeping victory echoes Amit Shah’s rallying cry, underscoring the stakes as the nation prepares for the polls.
