Sonia Gandhi wants her son to be the PM,” he said, adding that NCP founder Sharad Pawar is keen on promoting his daughter, TMC chief Mamta Banerjee wants her nephew as chief minister.
RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav and DMK chief M K Stalin also want their sons to become CMs, he said.The upcoming Lok Sabha elections are crucial for the world’s biggest democracy as about 100 crore people will exercise their franchise, he said.Shah said that from the time of Jan Sangh, a forerunner of the BJP, the saffron party has never considered elections as a means of gaining power.“We have accepted elections as a festival of democracy, considering it a medium to reach out to people with our principles and ideology. When we were in power, we considered the elections as a medium to give people the account of our achievements,” he said.
Referring to Jammu and Kashmir, north-east and Naxal-hit areas, Shah said there has been a 70 per cent decline in violence in these areas, and deaths caused due to terrorism, insurgency and left-wing extremism have reduced by 72 per cent.Theatres have opened in Kashmir after 30 years and the Valley has become “jewel of India”. “Two crore tourists from the country and world have visited Kashmir and enjoyed its beauty in a peaceful atmosphere,” he said.
Addressing about 23,000 booth-level BJP workers at Khajuraho, Shah urged them to resolve to give the Modi government a third term at the Centre with more than 400 seats, asserting that the coming elections were about making India a superpower and the world's third-largest economy.Shah said the Congress during its 10-year tenure (between 2004 and 2014) had indulged in scams worth Rs 12 lakh crore.Listing out achievements of the party, Shah said the BJP regime at the Centre has ensured 5 kg of free ration monthly to more than 80 crore poor people, provided tapped water to 14 crore families, and given Rs 6,000 annual assistance to 11 crore farmers.
