A day after PM Addressing mediapersons in the national capital, Shah, also a close aide of Modi, said the present government was visible and had weeded out the trust deficit among people towards it.
Shah said that post-independence, people of the nation gave a chance to a non-Congress government. The BJP had won 282 seats in general elections last year and the Congress was left with just 44.
“Earlier, people used to look for government and there was no trust. But, things have changed and now the government is pro-active and has worked to improve the federal structure of India,” said Shah.
Shah, was a star campaigner during general elections who turnaround BJP’s fate in Uttar Pradesh also. He was elevated to President rank in BJP post party’s win after Rajnath Singh took charge as Home Minister.
Meanwhile, Shah also boasted that no one from the opposition could level corruption charges against any minister in Modi’s cabinet.
He took a jibe on Congress over coal scam, saying under Modi regime, the country benefitted immensely from coal block auctions this year.
Shah also attacked Congress on black money issue, which was one of the poll planks last year.
Modi has vowed to bring back money stashed away in abroad. “We have enacted law on black money and we are determined to get it back,” said Shah.
Replying to ‘suit boot ki sarkar’ jibe by Congress, Shah said it was a thing of the past now, while replying to a question.
Later, Shah is to visit Haryana to kick-start 200 big rallies to mark first anniversary of the government.
While he claims that the country wants a change which is why it voted BJP in Maharashtra, Haryana, Jammu and Kashmir (in coalition), it is yet to see how the party will perform in Bihar elections.
