After Jaishankar, Amit Shah Slams Rahul Gandhi

After Jaishankar, Amit Shah Slams Rahul Gandhi

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday accused Rahul Gandhi of criticising India and discussing its internal politics during his visits to foreign countries and said the Congress leader should learn from his ancestors.
Shah said it does not suit any leader to criticise one's own country abroad and asked Gandhi to keep in mind that the people of the country were watching him.
He was referring to Gandhi's criticism of the Narendra Modi government during his recent tour of the USA.
"Any patriotic person should discuss Indian politics within India. It does not suit the leader of any party to go abroad and discuss the country's politics and criticise the country. Rahul baba, you must remember that people of the country are watching it closely," Shah said.
"Rahul Baba is going abroad on a vacation to escape the summer heat. He keeps criticising the country there. I would like to suggest Rahul Gandhi to learn from his ancestors," he said.
Shah was addressing a rally at Siddhpur town in Patan district of Gujarat organised to mark nine years of the Modi government.
The country has witnessed huge changes under the Modi government, but Congress does not stop talking about anti-India things, he said.
Shah also attacked Gandhi over its criticism of the new Parliament building.
"You opposed the new Parliament building and installation of 'Sengol', a historical sceptre from Tamil Nadu, there. The Sengol was to be installed by Jawaharlal Nehru. Modi is doing it because he (Nehru) did not do it, then why are you opposing?" he asked.
Congress leaders do not allow PM Modi to speak in Parliament and only keep opposing everything, Shah alleged, and added that the PM has started a new tradition of doing "politics of development".
Shah also attacked Gandhi over the issues of the Ram temple in Ayodhya and the abrogation of Article 370.
Lord Ram's temple at Ayodhya was desecrated since the time of Babar (founder of the Mughal empire), he said.
"But today, a grand temple of Lord Ram is under construction and it will be completed shortly," he said.
Praising PM Modi, Shah said the government worked towards improving the lives of Dalits, poor and tribals and made them capable.
"It was under the leadership of PM Modi that a tribal woman became the President of the country for the first time," he said.
Whether improving the economic condition or connecting the country digitally, implementing projects of social welfare, COVID-19 vaccination or infrastructure, India has become a centre of hope in the world, he said.
Referring to former PM Manmohan Singh and ex-Congress president Sonia Gandhi, Shah said, "Comparing 10 years of Manmohan-Sonia to 10 years of Modi, one will find that the 10 years of the Congress-led government were marked by corruption, mismanagement, economic downfall, terrorism and poor law and order situation." The 10 years of the Modi government have been that of capable and safe digital India walking the path of social welfare, he said.
Shah urged the people of Gujarat to vote for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to ensure that it wins all 26 Lok Sabha seats in Gujarat in the 2024 election.
"Narendrabhai started a new era of development in the country from Gujarat. The publicity of all-round development witnessed in Gujarat from 2002 till 2014 in terms of 24-hour electricity, water, check dam, farm, and girl education helped Modi become the prime minister and the 'Gujarat model' turned into the 'India model',&rdquo; he said.
Shah urged people to get united and decide whether they want Modi or Gandhi as their prime minister in 2024.
"Wherever I go, I see support for Modi. I request the people of Gujarat that they should ensure that all 26 seats in the state are won by the BJP for the third time," he said.

Plea in Supreme Court against automatic disqualification of convicted netas

A plea has been filed in the Supreme Court challenging the law which immediately disqualifies an elected representative if they are sentenced to prison for two or more years

The plea questioned the constitutional validity of this law and called it arbitrary.&nbsp;

A day after Rahul Gandhi was disqualified as a Lok Sabha MP, a public interest litigation has been filed in the Supreme Court challenging the law under which the action against him was taken.&nbsp;
The Representation of the People Act states that any elected representative is immediately disqualified if they are sentenced to prison for two or more years.&nbsp;
The plea questioned the constitutional validity of this law and called it arbitrary.&nbsp;
It stated that the law is being blatantly misused for wreaking personal vengeance on political opposition. The plea added that the rule does not take the nature and gravity of the offences into consideration providing for blanket disqualification.&nbsp;

Watch: warships, fighter jets, submarines, planes; Indian Navy's mega drills in Arabian Sea

INS Vikramaditya and newly inducted INS Vikrant were the centrepieces of the exercise as they served as floating airfields for a wide array of aircraft, including MiG-29K and helicopters such as MH60R, Kamov and Advanced Light helicopters.

In one of the biggest demonstrations of its combat prowess in recent years, the Indian Navy has carried out a mega operation in the Arabian sea that involved two aircraft carriers, multiple warships, submarines and over 35 frontline planes amid China's increasing presence in the Indian Ocean region.
The Navy's aircraft carriers -- INS Vikramaditya and newly inducted INS Vikrant -- were the centrepieces of the exercise as they served as floating airfields for a wide array of aircraft, including MiG-29K and helicopters such as MH60R, Kamov and Advanced Light helicopters, officials said on Saturday.
The twin carrier CBG (carrier battle group) operations were held recently, they said without divulging the specific date of the exercise.
The Indian Navy said the "seamless operational" integration of the two aircraft carriers as well as the fleet ships and submarines is a powerful testament to the "pivotal role" of sea-based air power and India's role as the preferred security partner in the Indian Ocean and beyond.
