“Raja Sahab stopped development”: Amit Shah jabs Amarinder Singh

TIL Desk/National/Amritsar/ Launching a scathing attack on the Congress dispensation in Punjab, BJP president Amit Shah has alleged that the “raja-maharaja” government brought to a standstill the development projects and schemes started during the SAD-BJP rule.

He also hit out at Punjab Cabinet Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu for hugging Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa at Imran Khan’s swearing-in ceremony in Islamabad last year. Addressing a state-level BJP workers’ meet, Amit Shah made light of the opposition parties’ effort to stitch up a ”Mahagathbandhan” saying a leaderless alliance cannot take the country forward.

The people of this country have made up their mind to bring the BJP-led NDA back to power, Mr Shah said. “This grand alliance cannot take the country forward, it cannot make the country superpower. Only a government under PM Modi can do so. Can Congress party give befitting reply to terror attacks? Only Narendra Modi government can,” he claimed.
