Union Home Minister Amit Shah remarked on Saturday that the Congress’s attempts to launch “Rahulyaan” have been unsuccessful for the past 20 years. In contrast, Prime Minister Narendra Modi successfully launched Chandrayaan-3, which recently landed on the lunar surface. Shah took a dig at Rahul Gandhi, stating that every time Rahulyaan was launched, it crashed.
“PM Modi just launched Chandrayaan, which reached the lunar surface with a tricolor. (But) the Congress wants to launch the same ‘Rahul Gandhi Yaan’ again and again. In the last 20 years, Rahulyaan was launched 20 times, and every time, Rahulyaan has crashed,” Shah said during a public gathering ahead of the November 30 Assembly polls.
Campaigning for the Bharatiya Janata Party candidate Aelleni Sudhakar Rao in Kollapur, Shah criticized both the Congress and the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi for engaging in appeasement politics and perpetuating dynastic culture.
“Voting for Congress and BRS means voting for corruption, minority appeasement, dynasties,” he stated.
Shah highlighted the issue of youth unemployment in Telangana, asserting that while youths are committing suicide, Chief Minister KCR is only concerned about his son, KTR.
“Youths are committing suicide due to unemployment across Telangana. The youth of Kollapur are also wandering unemployed. KCR is not worried about the youth of Kollapur; he is worried about only one youth, KTR, to make him the Chief Minister,” Shah remarked.
He promised that if the BJP is voted to power in Telangana, they will investigate all 14 paper leak incidents in the last seven years in the KCR government.
“The BJP has decided that all paper leaks will be investigated, and the culprits will be put behind bars,” he said, adding that the party will provide employment to 2.5 lakh youths.
Telangana is set to go to the polls on November 30, with vote counting scheduled for December 3, along with four other states. In the 2018 assembly polls, the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), formerly known as Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), won 88 out of 119 seats, while the Congress secured 19 seats.
