Rajasthan Elections | ‘Rahul Gandhi’s party involved in negative politics; BJP transformed state from 'bimaru' to developed’: Amit Shah

India TV News  

With the election campaigning in the state coming to an end on Wednesday, Bharatiya Janata Party President Amit Shah addressed a press conference in Jaipur and said the BJP transformed poll-bound Rajasthan from a 'bimaru' to a developed state and would now make it prosperous. Slamming the Congress party, the BJP president said Rahul Gandhi’s party was involved in negative politics, promoting casteism and appeasement. While the Congress promoted dynastic politics, making members of one family party presidents, the BJP gives importance to those who perform and work to push the country ahead, he said. Shah also talked about the Bulandshahr violence in Uttar Pradesh earlier this week and said it would be unfair to give it a political colour.
