Amit Shah on Omicron Covid, UP & Punjab polls, farm law repeal, & more #HTLS2021

Union home minister Amit Shah said on Saturday India witnessed a stable government after 2014, when the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) came to power, and the country has been on a path of development as he gave the keynote address at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit on Saturday. “In 2014, India received a form of stability after decades of coalition politics at the Centre. This was seven years before Covid-19 hit us. Before 2014, India was in a state of ‘policy paralysis’,” Amit Shah said while speaking during a session moderated by Shashi Shekhar, the editor-in-chief of Hindustan, on the final day of HTLS 2021. With Direct Benefit Transfer or DBT, poverty alleviation, rural electrification and other programmes, PM Modi ensured the participation of everyone in the country's progress. Shah said Jammu and Kashmir's statehood will be restored after delimitation as he talked about the development “First delimitation, then the restoration of Jammu and Kashmir's statehood - that will be the process. But whoever says otherwise, is trying to create confusion,” Amit Shah said while speaking during a session moderated by Shashi Shekhar, the editor-in-chief of Hindustan, on the final day of HTLS 2021.
