New Delhi: As part of an outreach programme of the BJP party, Union Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah on Sunday held a rally in Haryana's Sirsa. Addressing the rally, Shah hit out at Congress remarking that Bhupinder Singh Hooda-led government in Haryana was a "3D Government" - government of 'Darbaris', 'Damads', and 'Dealers'.


The Home Minister said, "A corruption of Rs 12 lakh crores was done during Congress govt, but in the last 9 years, even our opposition cannot accuse Modi govt of a single corruption case."


According to the Home Minister, the Manmohan Singh government stayed quiet when Pakistan terrorists beheaded soldiers, but the Modi government gave a befitting reply to Pakistan for Uri and Pulwama attacks.


"9 years ago, terrorists from Pakistan intruded India’s land and killed our soldiers, but the then Manmohan & Sonia govt kept silent. After Modi ji became the PM, Pakistan tried to do the same, and within 10 days we gave Pakistan a befitting reply with surgical strikes and air strikes," he said.








Taking a dig at Rahul Gandhi, Shah said that the Gandhi scion "didn’t stop his politics even during the time of Covid and urged people to not get vaccinated, but no one listened to him.”

 

Notably, Shah today addressed two rallies in Haryana's Sirsa and Punjab's Gurdaspur as part of his party's public outreach ‘Sampark Se Samarthan’ to mark the completion of nine years of the Narendra Modi government.


Under the one-month-long ‘Maha Jan Sampark’ programme which started on June 1, the party is holding rallies, meeting prominent persons, and reaching out to beneficiaries of central schemes.



Earlier in the day, Amit Shah attacked the AAP government in Punjab stating that Chief Minister Bhagwat Mann has time for his Delhi counterpart Kejriwal but not for the people of Punjab.


"Bhagwat Mann has time for Kejriwal but not for the people of Punjab. The people of Punjab are feeling insecure. Law and order have degraded in the state. The people (of Punjab) will teach a lesson for this," he remarked while addressing the public meeting in Gurdaspur.


For Shah's visit to Sirsa in Haryana, more than 30 senior police officers, including 15 IPS officers, were overseeing the security, official sources said.
