Amit Shah poses 5 questions to RaGa, seeks clarity

In an apparent bid to corner Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in his family stronghold of Rae Bareli, Amit Shah on Sunday posed five questions before him and asked him to make his stand clear on those questions.

“I want to ask five questions publicly — triple talaq, which was abolished by Modi ji... Was it good or bad? Rahul Baba, answer the people of Rae Bareli whether you want to bring back triple talaq? They were saying that they would bring it back. Today, I want to ask in the presence of the public of Rae Bareli to make (your stand) clear,” Shah said. “Instead of Muslim personal law, should there be a Uniform Civil Code or not? They say that they will bring (back) the Muslim personal law,” he said. On surgical strikes, Shah said, “Modi ji conducted the surgical strikes, was it good or bad? Rahul Baba raises questions on surgical strikes. “I also want to ask him why you did not go to the Ram temple in Ayodhya (after ‘Pran Pratishtha’). Give an answer,” Shah said. “At last, Rahul Baba should tell the people of Rae Bareli that do you support the scrapping of Article 370 or not? Rahul Baba should answer these five questions,” Shah said, adding that the former Congress president should seek the votes of the people of Raebareli after answering these questions. Rae Bareli will vote in the fifth phase of the Lok Sabha elections on May 20.
