BJP will win in both Lower and Upper parts of Himachal PradeshUnion Home Minister Amit Shah said on November 6, 2022, ahead of the assembly elections on November 12.
During an election rally in Kangra district, Mr. Shah also took a dig at the election guarantee given by the Congress in his manifesto.
The state is divided into Upper and Lower Himachal. While Mandi, Kullu, Shimla, Solan, Kinnaur, Lahaul-Spiti, Sirmaur and Chamba make up Upper Himachal, the lower parts of the state include Chamba, Una, Kangra, Bilaspur and Hamirpur. Traditionally, the Congress has been a strong contender in the upper parts of the state.
Interestingly, political leaders and supporters in the hill state usually express their inclination through their Himachali topi or cap. While BJP leaders wear red caps, Congress members wear green caps.
“This time the red cap will be the BJP and the green cap will also be the BJP,” Shah said. He claimed that the saffron party would defeat the Congress in its stronghold.
Alleging that Congress was involved in corruption during his tenure, Mr Shah said, “Who would believe his guarantee? He ruled for 10 years but only indulged in big scams. Now he is trying to save innocent people of Himachal Pradesh. Guaranteed to make a fool of you.” Praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Shah said that his stature has grown globally.
The Home Minister claimed that when Indian students were stranded in Ukraine during the war with Russia, Mr. Modi had called the Presidents of both the countries and asked them to stop the war for a few days so that the Indians could be evacuated. Can you
“This is unprecedented for the world. Our students were evacuated safely,” Mr. Shah said.
