BJP will form Govt in Assam with largest ever mandate: Amit Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday said he is confident that the BJP will return to power in Assam under the leadership of Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma with the “largest ever mandate”.

Addressing the youth convention of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) here, Shah urged the people to give another mandate to the BJP and assured them that “every infiltrator will be sent out of India”.

‘’The Congress gave shelter to infiltrators, but the BJP Government is determined to identify each one of them and drive them out of the country,” he said.

The Election Commission conducted Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in some states, but the Congress protested against the exercise, he claimed.

“The Congress legalised, formalised and normalised infiltration, but the BJP will remove each one of them from the electoral rolls. Rahul Babu can rest assured that not only their (infiltrators’) names will be removed from the electoral rolls, but they will also be driven out,’’ Shah said.

During the Congress rule, Assam was “known for violence”, and several youths were killed, Shah claimed.

“The Congress did nothing for the youth, but its leaders were only concerned about the benefits of their families,” he added.

Shah alleged that the grand old party believes in ‘’corruption, polarisation by promoting infiltrators and looking after the interests of their own children”, and claimed that the BJP’s focus has been on “development, driving out infiltrators and ensuring that the interests of the children of poor people are taken care of”.
