Union Home Minister Amit Shah was in great form participating in the discussion on 75th Anniversary of the Constitution in the Rajya Sabha. With his sense of humour intact, Shah took potshots at Rahul Gandhi and his campaign against the BJP using a pocket edition of the Constitution. He said the Congress need not even appoint a panel to find out why it lost Maharashtra polls as a journalist also discovered he had been handed a copy of the Constitution that was blank. Rahul Gandhi carried a blank Constitution copy. He waved a ‘blank’ Samvidhan copy in Maharashtra to get votes. “ A 54-year old ‘yuva’, roaming around with the Constitution claiming that we (the BJP) would change the Constitution. The provision to amend the Constitution is within the Constitution. The Congress ruled for 55 years and made 77 changes…” pointed out Shah. He went on to say that the Muslim Personal Law was the beginning of appeasement after the Constitution came into this country. “You (Opposition) want Sharia only for marriage under Muslim Personal Law Board. What about ‘chopping hands’ for stealing and hanging traitors publicly? Should we have that part of Sharia Law too…?” Appeasement politics came to an end after the abrogation of Article 370 he asserted. He said it took a lot of guts to abrogate Article 370 in August 2019. “Not even a single drop of blood was shed nor stone pelted in the valley. Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi and other party leaders have been meeting with Lok Sabha Speaker, Om Birla to expunge from records the allegations of the Soros connection made against his mother, Sonia Gandhi, and himself by BJP MP Nishikant Dubey.
