Speaking about Ayodhya’s Ram Janmbhoomi Temple, Shah pointed out, “Did anyone even imagine there will be a Ram Mandir in Ayodhya and reminded Samajwadi leader Akhilesh Yadav of his jibe, ‘Mandir wahin baneyenge, tithi nahi batayenge’.”
Further slamming the Opposition parties, he said that for many years the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) game happened which resulted in the destruction of Uttar Pradesh. “Seeing the law and order situation of UP, my blood used to boil. From west UP people were migrating. But now, no one can dare to make anyone migrate.
Today, there are no Bahubalis. This change is because of the BJP government,” he said. He further said that unlike the opposition we have proved that Bharatiya Janata Party governments work for the poorest of the poor. Uttar Pradesh is set to go to the polls next year.
In the 2017 Assembly elections, the BJP won a landslide of 312 Assembly seats and secured a 39.67 per cent vote share in the elections for 403-member Assembly. Samajwadi Party (SP) bagged 47 seats, BSP won 19 while Congress bagged seven seats.
