Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday credited PM Narendra Modi for establishing peace in communally sensitive State while accusing the past Congress governments of spreading communal riots for achieving political goals.
According to the Home Minister, before the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) came to power and Narendra Modi became the Chief Minister, Gujarat grappled with communal riots, curfews, and with issues like smuggling of narcotics, arms and RDX through international border.
He added that law and order was the biggest issue during the Congress regimes and curfews were frequent during their tenure. He said this while inaugurating various police housing projects in parts of the State from Nadiad in Central Gujarat.
