"In 2019, Uddhav Thackeray campaigned with us but when poll results came, he forgot about all the ideologies and fell at Sharad Pawar's feet and requested to make him Chief Minister. But today Shiv Sena has become real and with 'Dhanush Baan', has come again with BJP. BJP doesn't have greed for power and we will never forget our ideologies. Maharashtra's interest is paramount in our mind," the Home Minister said while addressing a 'Vijay Sankalp rally'.
"Politics and power can be grabbed for a moment with crooked intelligence, but only courage, bravery and results are useful in the battle which Uddhav's Shiv Sena does not have. It is with BJP workers," he added.
Shah had said in Pune on Saturday that the Election Commission proved that the truth always won.
"Yesterday the Election Commission made 'doodh ka doodh, aur paani ka paani' (established the difference between truth and lie yesterday). The formula of 'Satyameva Jayate' became significant yesterday. Shinde ji got bow and arrow symbol and the party name 'Shiv Sena'," he had said.
On February 17, the Election Commission of India (ECI) gave the faction led by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde the party name "Shiv Sena" and the symbol "Bow and Arrow," which was a significant setback for the Uddhav Thackery faction of the Shiv Sena.
In a major setback to the Uddhav Thackery faction of Shiv Sena, the Election Commission of India (ECI) on February 17 allotted the party name "Shiv Sena" and the symbol "Bow and Arrow" to the faction led by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.
Shah hit out at the previous UPA government and said that "every minister in power considered themselves Prime Minister".
"Before 2014, every minister in power considered themselves PM. There was high corruption. Pak terrorists used to butcher our army officers. Nobody had the guts to take action against this terrorism. Law and order situation was worsening," he said.
According to the Home Minister, the Prime Minister must lead the construction of a prosperous India.
"In 2047, when the country's centenary is celebrated, India should be first in every field in the world, the foundation of such an India has to be laid," he said.
"Had anyone imagined that article 370 will ever be abrogated? NCP to Congress, SP, BSP, Mamta, and Nitish Kumar, everyone opposed saying it will lead to a blood bath. 370 was struck down by Modi ji and not a single stone was pelted," Shah added.
Shah praised the Prime Minister and stated that he has fulfilled all of his promises.
"From providing financial assistance to farmers to providing tax relief of Rs 10,000 crore retrospectively to sugar cane farmers in this year's budget. Modi Ji has lived up to all of his promises," he said.
"New India is marching on the path of progress at a fast pace and this has led to all opposition coming against us. But I am not at all worried as a party that has a workforce of dedicated workers like you and a leader like Modi ji cannot be defeated easily," Shah added.
