NEW DELHI: BJP’s general secretary and prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi’s close aide Amit Shah triggered a fresh row when he reportedly delivered a speech calling for ‘revenge’ in a village near riot-hit Muzaffarnagar.
On Friday, Amit Shah met leaders of three communities, gurjjars, rajputs and dalits, at a farmhouse in Muzaffarnagar’s Gandhi Colony and apparently spoke of revenge.
“A man can live without food or sleep. He can live when he’s thirsty and hungry. But when he’s insulted, he can’t live. We must seek revenge for the insult heaped on us,” he said.
He did the same thing a day before on Thursday while he met leaders of the jat community at Raajhar village, 40km from Muzzaffarnagar and delivered a similar vengeful remark.
“This election is about voting out the government that protects and gives compensation to those who killed jats. It is about revenge and protecting honour,” Shah said.
“If you want to take revenge, vote for the Bharatiya Janata Party,” Amit Shah said.
