Slamming the Congress, the Union Home Minister said that for the grand old party, the path of gaining power is a way of corruption but for the BJP, it is by making people’s lives better.
“For Congress, gaining power is a way of doing corruption but for us, it is to make people's lives better. In the recent elections in 7 states, BJP won in 5 states and Congress was wiped out from 6 states,” Shah said.
It is to be noted that the Union Minister chaired a key meeting with booth level workers in Karnataka to discuss the required grassroots level preparations before the Assembly elections in the state that are to be held in May next year.
