Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the ruling Congress in Rajasthan had crossed all limits of appeasement politics in order to protect its vote bank. The State had been turned into a “land of riots”, where innocent persons were killed and radical outfits were given a free hand, Mr. Shah said.
Mr. Shah was addressing election rallies at Bijainagar and Nasirabad in Ajmer district. He also took part in a road show in Ajmer city ahead of the State Assembly election. Criticising the Congress government, he said it had brought Rajasthan to the top position in terms of crime, appeasement, corruption, inflation index and atrocities on women and Dalits.
Mr. Shah said not a single word came out of the mouths of Congress leaders when tailor Kanhaiya Lal was brutally murdered in broad daylight in Udaipur last year. “If Congress comes back to power in this election, organisations such as the banned Popular Front of India will get a free hand. Rajasthan will never be safe in the Congress rule,” he said.
