'Rahul Baba and his sister came to Shimla for holidays, but did not attend Pran Pratishtha': Amit Shah

Una (Himachal Pradesh): Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Saturday that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi came to Shimla for holidays but did not go to the Pran Pratishtha of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya as they are afraid of their vote bank.

Addressing a rally in support of BJP candidate Anurag Thakur here today, Amit Shah said that someone like Narendra Modi has not taken a leave for 23 years.

"Rahul Baba and his sister came to Shimla for holidays but did not go to the Pran Pratishtha of Ram Lalla. They did not go because they were afraid of their vote bank. In this election, on one side there is Rahul Baba who celebrates holidays every six months; on the other side there is Narendra Modi ji who eats sweets with army soldiers on the border without taking any leave even for Diwali for 23 years," Shah said.

"We are crossing 400 but Rahul Baba is once again falling below 40," he added.

Further, the Home Minister said that the INDIA bloc does not have any face for the PM post.

"The INDI alliance does not have a candidate for the post of Prime Minister. A journalist asked him who would become your Prime Minister. So he replied that one person each would become one in turn for one year. Rahul Baba, this is not a grocery shop, this is a country of 140 crore people," he said.

Shah also emphasized that PM Modi has crossed 310 seats in the five phases of the Lok Sabha election.

"Five phases of elections have been completed, today the sixth phase of voting is going on. PM Modi has crossed 310 in five phases. PM Modi has to be made the Prime Minister again by crossing 400 in the sixth and seventh phases. Those in the seventh phase have the responsibility to let him cross 400," he added.

Praising union minister Anurag Thakur, Shah said that even if the people search with a lamp, no one can find such an MP like Thakur.

"I have known Anurag for a long time. I was the president of the Yuva Morcha when we were together. Then he worked in the Cricket Association and now working in Modi Ji's cabinet. Even if you search with a lamp, you will not find such an MP. He not only cared about his area but also worked to mobilize the youth across the country with the BJP and its ideology," Amit Shah said.
