While addressing the rally in Ujjain, the Union Home Minister lashed out at the Congress party and said that the Congress had stalled the construction of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid its foundation.

“Congress had stalled the construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya for years, but Modi ji laid the foundation for it. They used to taunt about the date that when the temple will be built there. Modi ji is going to Ayodhya on 22 January 2024 and the idol of Ram Lalla will be installed at the same place,” said Amit Shah.

Union Home Minister also made a huge remark by saying that the Congress party has left Madhya Pradesh as a sick state. “Madhya Pradesh has only two options — On one hand, there is Congress, which has left Madhya Pradesh as a sick state. And on the other hand, there is BJP which is bringing development to every corner of Madhya Pradesh,” said Amit Shah.

Amit Shah also blamed the previous UPA government at the Centre over their economic policies. “Sonia-Manmohan’s government had left India’s economy at number 11, but Modi government worked to take India’s economy to number 5 in just 9 years,” said Shah.

The Home Minister further said that Kamal Nath and Bantadhar’s team have no answer to the development that took place in Madhya Pradesh under the leadership of Chief Minister Shivraj. Gandhi family, Kamal Nath-Nakul Nath and Digvijay Singh and his son have done nothing except ruining Madhya Pradesh.
