Amit Shah's Rally in Assam Elections, Promises to Rename Karimganj to 'Shri Bhumi'

During the final phase of campaigning for the Assam Assembly elections, Union Home Minister Amit Shah addressed a large public meeting in the Barak Valley, making a strong attack on Congress. Shah announced that if the BJP government comes to power, it will rename Karimganj district to 'Shri Bhumi', which will revive the cultural identity of the region.

He accused Congress of sheltering infiltrators for decades for vote bank politics. Shah clarified that the NDA government will not allow Assam to become a stronghold of infiltrators and is committed to eradicating the infiltration problem at its roots with the CAA and other stringent laws. During the rally, Amit Shah strongly objected to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge's statement referring to BJP supporters as 'illiterate'.

He termed it an insult to great personalities from Gujarat like Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel, and Narendra Modi. He stated that calling those who do not support Congress illiterate reflects the desperation and degraded politics of Congress. The Home Minister claimed that the people of Assam would take revenge for this insult through the ballot box and would ensure the opposition party's bail is forfeited.

He described Congress as a party that engages in anti-development and divisive politics. Amit Shah praised the central government's historic decision to grant classical language status to Assamese and Bengali, calling it a symbol of linguistic pride. He appealed to voters to choose the BJP-NDA alliance for the security and integrity of the state.

Voting for the 126-member Assam Assembly is scheduled for April 9, with results to be announced on May 4. Shah expressed confidence that a double-engine government with a full majority would be formed in the state once again, fulfilling the dream of an infiltrator-free and developed Assam.
