Union Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah said Sunday that the lotus will bloom in all 10 Lok Sabha seats in Haryana in the 2024 election.

Shah was scheduled to attend a party rally organised in Haryana’s Gohana town, but could not reach there because of continuous rain. He then addressed the rally via phone.

In his brief speech, Amit Shah expressed his desire that the people of Haryana vote again to re-elect Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister. “All of us will work together to make Narendra Modi-ji the Prime Minister again. I am confident that the lotus of Bharatiya Janata Party will bloom in every Lok Sabha seat.”

The senior BJP leader added: “You have witnessed so much development in Haryana in the last eight years. Corruption has reduced in every sector, law and order has improved, and casteism has ended. In eight years, so much development has taken place in Haryana which could not have happened in 70 years. Now educated sarpanches are taking Haryana forward.”

The Union minister said he could not reach Gohana on the day, but in the near future he will come to meet the people of Haryana.

“I wanted to come to meet you in this rally but because of bad weather, there is no permission for the helicopter to take off. I also tried to come in a vehicle, but there is a possibility of rain for two hours there (at the rally venue). There was a request from Manohar-ji that I talk to you via telephone itself,” he said, referring to CM Manohar Lal Khattar.

On his part, Khattar recalled the 2014 assembly polls when the BJP had formed the government in Haryana for the first time on its own strength.

The BJP leader alleged that “before 2014, an atmosphere of fear, corruption prevailed, but the present government worked to change the system”.

Lashing out at the previous Congress regime, Manohar Lal Khattar also alleged “corruption was rampant in all spheres and transfers, recruitments and Change of Land Use industry flourished during their time”.

Claiming that the current government has come down heavily on corruption, the Chief Minister said “it was those people who used to indulge in corruption during the previous Congress regime who have become unemployed”.

Pointing to the BJP government at the Centre and in Haryana, Khattar said the “double engine” government has been serving the people for the past eight years. On the basis of our achievements, we again formed a government in 2019, said Khattar.

He added: “We have done many works to bring changes in the system and ensured that all sections of society including farmers, small shopkeepers, labourers, poor and downtrodden are benefitted. While one lakh people have been given government jobs during the present government’s time, 8.5 lakh have got employment in the private sector.”

“Good governance has been our motto and we ensured transparency in government jobs,” he said, while adding “many of our schemes are being praised by the Centre and other states as well,” the Chief Minister said further during the rally.
