Amit Shah

The swearing-in ceremony unfolded in Raipur, witnessing the presence of distinguished dignitaries, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, BJP's National President JP Nadda, and Chief Ministers from various BJP-governed states.

Regarding Nehru, Gandhi highlighted the sacrifices made by India's first Prime Minister and criticized Shah for distorting historical facts to suit his narrative.

Shah mentioned that the Modi government is committed to justice for displaced Kashmiri people and highlighted the transformation in the outlook of Kashmiri youth under Prime Minister Modi's leadership. He also assured the restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir at an appropriate time. Shah welcomed a demand for a comprehensive investigation into the 'Kashmiri Pandit genocide.'

Nitish Kumar's reception of Amit Shah appeared perfunctory, maintaining a distant demeanor while presenting a flower bouquet, shawl, and memento, seemingly averting his gaze.

He highlighted the BJP's initial support for the survey during their tenure in Bihar but raised concerns about the survey's current implications and the raised questions.

ABVP, boasting 50,65,264 active members, claims a presence across educational campuses and engagement in diverse realms like social causes, environmental initiatives, service endeavors, and sports.

Addressing the media in Patna, Prasad contended, "Amit Shah lacks a comprehensive understanding of this matter. Unnecessarily, he's casting blame on our inaugural prime minister."

Responding to queries about a timeline for the decision, Shah remarked, "It will be decided, why delay," indicating that the decision-making process is underway.

Thackeray also referenced an instance earlier this year during the Karnataka Assembly elections, where Modi reportedly urged voters to chant 'Bajrang Bali Ki Jai' while casting their votes.

“It is the soil of Khudi Ram Bose, Jubba Sahani and Pandit Shahdev and I want to respect them and I pray to Chatthi Maiya to make Bihar free from Jungle Raj and Paltu Ram in 2025,” Shah said.
