Union Home Minister Amit Shah claimed on Thursday that if the BJP comes to power, it will increase the reservation for SC, ST, and OBC and will end Muslim reservations.
While addressing a public rally in Telangana’s Bhongir, Amit Shah said, “Congress wants to fight elections by speaking lies. They say that if Prime Minister Narendra Modi comes, he will finish the reservation. Prime Minister Modi has been leading this country unanimously for the last 10 years, but he did not end the reservation. However, the Congress party has robbed the reservations of SC, ST and OBC by giving 4 per cent reservation to Muslims.”

He further added, “In 2019, the public of Telangana gave us four seats. This time, we will win more than 10 Lok Sabha seats in Telangana. This double-digit score in Telangana will make PM Modi cross 400 seats… Make BJP victorious on more than 10 seats. We will end the Muslim reservation and increase the reservation of SC, ST, and OBC.”
In an apparent dig at the Congress Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi, Shah remarked, “In our manifesto, we have given Modi’s guarantees and he does what he says. And the guarantees of Rahul baba doesn’t even stay till sunset.”

The union home minister rebuked Gandhi for making commitments without fulfilling them. He said, “Rahul Gandhi promised to forgive the farmer loans but he didn’t, he promised to give Rs 15,000 to farmers but he didn’t fulfil that.”
Shah continued, “He (Rahul Gandhi) promised to give loans of Rs 5 lakh to students without guarantee but didn’t, he didn’t give scooty to girl students as promised by him, and he didn’t open International Schools in every Taluka. The Congress doesn’t fulfil its promises while PM Modi ji fulfils every promise.”

Steeping up his criticisms against the party, Amit Shah stated that the Congress party consistently fails to deliver on its promises. However, PM Modi stays true to his word.
He pointed out how the grand old party obstructed the construction of Ram Mandir for 70 years and in just five years, PM Modi won the case, conducted the ‘Bhoomi Pujan’, and performed the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony. PM Modi also revoked Article 370 to ensure the Tricolour flies high in Kashmir forever, Shah said.
The union home minister, meanwhile, described the Congress, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), and All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) as a triumvirate of appeasement .”These people oppose The Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), they want to run Telangana on the basis of Quran, they want to bring back Triple Talaq, they also boycotted Pran Pratishtha ceremony,” he said.
Voting for all 17 seats in Telangana will take place on May 13 in the fourth phase of the ongoing Lok Sabha elections.
