'Congress Reached Last Rung...': Amit Shah Attacks Rahul Gandhi As NDA Heads For Big Win In In Bihar
As counting progressed on Monday, the NDA held a firm advantage in the Bihar Assembly elections, indicating a likely return to power.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah, reacting to the NDA’s strong lead in the Bihar Assembly election trends, said the people of the state had expressed clear support for the Modi government’s stance against infiltrators and those who “sympathize” with them.
In a post on X, Shah said: “Every single vote of the people of Bihar is a symbol of faith in the Modi government's policy against infiltrators who play with India's security and resources, and their sympathizers. The public has given a resounding response to those who protect infiltrators for the sake of vote banks. The people of Bihar have conveyed the mood of the entire country that the purification of the voter list is essential and there is no place for politics against it. That is why the Congress, under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi, has reached the last rung in Bihar today.”
His remarks came as the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) maintained a decisive lead across constituencies during counting.
