Union Home Minister Amit Shah, addressing the BJP convention, left no room for doubt as he confidently declared the party's retention of power in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Shah took a swipe at the Congress party, emphasizing that the BJP stands as a testament to meritocracy and said, "If family-run politics existed in BJP, then the son of a tea seller would not have become the country's PM."

In the presence of PM Modi, BJP Chief JP Nadda, and other senior leaders, Shah praised the developmental strides achieved under the Modi government's leadership within a decade. Highlighting the success of PM Modi's foreign policy, Shah dispelled the misconception that prioritizing international friendships compromises national security.

He commended Modi's efforts to position India as a global leader, fostering a sense of unity with the concept of 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam,' or the world as one big family.

Post the national council meeting, Shah announced that BJP leaders would embark on a constituency-wise outreach ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. Their mission is to disseminate PM Modi's vision of India in 2047, marking the centenary of independence.

Shah did not mince words when criticizing the opposition, particularly the INDIA alliance, accusing the Congress party of undermining democracy with corruption, nepotism, appeasement, and casteism. He asserted that these practices have tainted the democratic fabric of the country and hindered the emergence of independent public opinion.
