SHAH: CONG NEVER CONDEMNED ACTS OF TERROR DUE TO POLITICS OF VOTES

AHMEDABAD: Union home minister Amit Shah on Saturday stepped up his attack on the Congress, alleging that terror strikes were rampant under the party’s rule at the Centre and it never condemned them due to “vote bank politics”.

Addressing a rally in Bhavnagar district, he said, “Today is the anniversary of the 26/11 attack. On this day (in 2008), Pakistani terrorists killed 164 people in Mumbai. I pay my humble tributes.”

“Sonia (Gandhi) and Manmohan Singh were in power for 10 years. During their regime, terrorists from Pakistan used to enter India frequently and kill our soldiers. Congress never uttered a word. Because of their vote bank. I hope you know who is Congress’s vote bank,” Shah said.
