Delhi Elections 2020: "Press the button so hard that protesters in Shaheen Bagh feel the current", says Amit Shah

BJP leader Amit Shah in his first public meeting in New Delhi constituency in support of party candidate Sunil Yadav on Wednesday said Arvind Kejriwal is the "biggest liar" he has seen in his entire life. 

Mr. Shah asked the Chief Minister of Delhi if he would issue an order of prosecution against the JNU student, Sharjeel Imam, arrested for the controversial "Cut off Assam from India" statement. 

Shah said rvind Kejriwal had lied he will not take bungalow or a car from the government." Now he has bungalow and car both. Kejriwal is the biggest liar I have seen in my 56 years," the BJP leader said.

The Union Home Minister also questioned the achievements of the Kejriwal government in the education sector, saying when BJP lawmakers exposed the AAP dispensation's false claims, but Kejriwal replied "We (BJP) are insulting Delhi".

"Kejriwal-ji, have you been feeling like Indira Gandhi?" Mr Shah asked.

"Indira Gandhi used to say Indira is India and India is Indira. Kejriwal also thinks Kejriwal is Delhi and Delhi is Kejriwal," he added.

Amit Shah slammed Arvind Kejriwal "for not granting prosecution sanction" against those who raised "tukde-tukde" slogans in JNU in February 2016.

"Now, Sharjeel Imam has threatened to cut off Assam from India. We have sent him to jail. I want to ask Kejriwal-ji whether he will grant sanction to prosecute him or not," he said.

Amit Shah said the government will change automatically if the people of the New Delhi constituency "overturn" things in their seat.

"Thirty-five seats are needed to change the government in Delhi. If you overturn the things here (New Delhi), it will change automatically. So, you alone can do the work of the people of 35 constituencies," he said.

"Press the button so hard that protesters in Shaheen Bagh feel the current," Amit Shah added.

The Union minister said "I declare from this stage that BJP will win an absolute majority and form the government in Delhi".

He also accused Arvind Kejriwal of deceiving social activist Anna Hazare by bringing in a "fraud" Jan Lokpal Bill.
