‘Chronology samajhiye’: Amit Shah on Pegasus scandal

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Union Home Minister Amit Shah has lashed out at the Congress and international organisations for suggesting that the government was involved in surveillance of phones of politicians, journalists and others, saying it was a “report by disrupters for obstructers” who want to derail India’s development trajectory with their conspiracies.

In a hard-hitting statement, he questioned the timing of the “selective leaks” on the eve of the Monsoon session and said they have been amplified by a few whose only aim is to do whatever is possible to humiliate India on the world stage. “The timing of the selective leaks, the disruptions, Aap Chronology Samajhiye!,” he said, referring to opposition parties stalling proceedings in Parliament on Monday.

“This is a report by the disrupters for the obstructers. Disrupters are global organisations that do not like India to progress. “Obstructers are political players in India who do not want India to progress. People of India are very good at understanding this chronology and connection,” he said. The home minister said he wanted to assure the people of India that the Modi government’s priority is clear ‘National Welfare’ — and it will keep working to achieve that no matter what happens.
