BJP only people’s party, others family-run, says Amit Shah

KORUTLA: BJP senior leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that the BJP is a people's party while Congress, BRS and AIMIM are family-run parties. Addressing ‘Sakala Janula Vijaya Sankalpa Sabha’, meetings at Korutla and Jangaon on Tuesday he said that the steering of the BRS Government was under the control of AIMIM Chief Asaduddin Owaisi.

“All these are 2G, 3G and 4G parties. The BRS is a two-generation party with KCR and KTR, the AIMIM is a three-generation party with grandfather, father and son and the Congress is of four generations Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, and Rahul Gandhi. These parties care about their families and not about the common man,” Amit Shah said.

Assuring the people of Telangana that if elected to power the BJP would celebrate Hyderabad Liberation Day officially and would construct a martyrs memorial at Bhairanpally, Amit Shah said that Telangana was liberated from the clutches of Nizam because of Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel. BRS president and Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao was not celebrating the day only to appease AIMIM, he added.

Amit Shah added that BJP was committed to the development of Telangana, BC categorisation, and a BC would be made Chief Minister as promised by the party. Calling the BRS the most corrupt party in the country the Home Minister said that huge corruption took place in Kaleshwaram, Mission Bhagiratha and Mission Kakatiya schemes.

He promised to order an inquiry by a retired Supreme Court Judge on the corruption in the BRS rule and would ensure that the corrupt be punished. “The name and fame of the nation touched new heights under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. We have constructed a new Parliament. The world is looking at India for guidance and leadership,” Amit Shah said.

The Union Home Minister also participated in a roadshow at the Uppal Assembly constituency in the evening
