TIL Desk/National/Assam/ Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the BJP will enact laws to tackle the “menace of love and land jihad” in Assam if it is voted to power. Addressing an election rally, Shah said appropriate laws and policies will be put in place to strengthen Assamese culture and civilisation.
The manifesto also promised it will enforce a deradicalisation policy to identify and quash organisations and individuals fanning communal exclusion and separatism. “The Congress manifesto is merely a tool for election campaign but the BJP manifesto is meant for implementation,” he asserted.
He also accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of describing AIUDF chief Badruddin Ajmal as representative of Assam’s identity. “He (Gandhi) does not understand Assam and its identity,” he said. Assam’s identity is linked to Vaishnav saints Srimanta Sankardeva and Madhavdeva, brave Ahom general Lachit Barphukan who saved the state from Mughal invasion and Bharat Ratnas Bhupen Hazarika and Gopinath Bordoloi, he said.
