‘Panchayat, Block elections wouldn’t have happened’

Hitting out at the rule of decades by the National Conference and People’s Democratic Party, Amit Shah said that these parties had stopped democracy and development in Jammu and Kashmir. “If Narendra Modi ji’s government had not come into power in 2014, then tell me would Panchayat elections have happened? Would block elections have happened? District elections have happened?”, asks the Home Minister to the public gathered at his rally.

Laptops to the hands of stone-pelters

Highlighting what the Valley went through from the 1990s to 2014, the Union Minister said that parties like NC and PDP had spread terrorism and hampered the growth of Jammu and Kashmir. Around 40 thousand youngsters died in this span, youth that had to work on their future became stone-pelters but none amongst these ruling parties stopped them or stopped terrorism. They rather boosted it. It was the Narendra Modi government that revamped the situation and started giving laptops to the hands that previously carried stones.

BJP habitual of dragging Pakistan

Backlashing at the NC Chief Farooq Abdullah, Amit Shah said, “Abdullah Sahab intimidates people that the Valley will be engulfed in terrorism. Today, I say standing in the Valley, I’m the Home Minister, Narendra Modi ji is the Prime Minister, no matter howsoever you want, we will not let terrorism enter the Kashmir Valley.”
