Bhabhua: As the Lok Sabha elections approach their final phase, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is intensifying its campaign efforts in Bihar. Union Home Minister Amit Shah held two significant public meetings today, addressing large crowds and emphasizing the necessity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s continued leadership.
Speaking at a rally in Bhabua, Kaimur, Shah lauded PM Modi’s efforts to uplift backward communities, asserting that Modi has shown respect and delivered tangible benefits to these groups. Shah questioned the stability of the opposition, referring to it as an “arrogant alliance” and criticizing the idea of alternating prime ministers. “The country cannot run with alternating PMs,” he declared. “Such a government cannot give a befitting reply to Pakistan. If we want to keep the country strong, Modi ji will have to become PM again.”
Shah also targeted opposition figures Rahul Gandhi and Lalu Prasad Yadav, accusing them of promising reservations for Muslims at the expense of OBC and backward class allocations. “Where will this reservation come from?” Shah asked rhetorically. “The reservation given to Muslims in Karnataka was cut off for OBC and backward class people. PM Modi will not allow the reservation of poor and backward classes to be compromised.”
Earlier in Daudnagar, Aurangabad, Shah directed sharp criticisms at Lalu Yadav and the Congress party. He accused the “Indi alliance” of being mired in corruption and dismissed Congress concerns about Pakistan’s nuclear capabilities. “We are BJP workers, not afraid of the atom bomb. PoK is ours and we will take it,” he asserted.
Highlighting the BJP’s achievements, Shah credited PM Modi with eradicating Naxalism in Bihar and Jharkhand. He urged voters in Karakat to support NDA candidate Upendra Kushwaha to prevent a win by the opposition. The contest in Karakat has turned into a triangular battle, further intensified by Bhojpuri actor Pawan Singh running as an independent candidate.
