Record Gujarat win signals faith in PM development model: Amit Shah

NEW DELHI: Union home and cooperative minister Amit Shah on Thursday said the historic and unprecedented mandate for BJP in Gujarat is a victory of the people of the state and their unwavering faith in the development model of PM Narendra Modi.
In a series of tweets, Shah said, “In the last two decades, under the leadership of Modi ji, BJP broke all records of development in Gujarat and today the people of Gujarat have blessed BJP and broken all records of victory.”
Taking a dig at the Opposition, the minister said Gujarat has given an unprecedented mandate to BJP, which has been instrumental in the development and public welfare, by rejecting those who believe in ‘revdi’ culture and make hollow promises besides indulging in politics of appeasement.
“This massive victory has shown that every section, be it women, youth or farmers, are wholeheartedly with BJP,” he added.
He said the victory was an outcome of the tireless hard work of CM Bhupendra Patel, state BJP chief CR Patil and scores of BJP workers.
Defence minister Rajnath Singh said PM Modi was the biggest factor in the party’s historic win. “BJP’s historic victory in Gujarat polls is a victory of the party’s commitment to development, good governance and public welfare. However, the biggest credit for this victory goes to the public trust in the leadership of PM Modi and his credibility,” he said.
