'400 Paar' Target On Track, NDA Will Cross That Mark By 12:30pm On Counting Day: Amit Shah To News18
In an exclusive interview with Network18, Shah said that the low voter turnout in the first two phases of Lok Sabha Election 2024 won't affect the NDA's mission '400 paar'.

Home Minister Amit Shah has said that the low voter turnout in the first two phases of Lok Sabha Election 2024 does not affect the NDA’s mission ‘400 paar’ and that they were “well on track” to achieve that. In an exclusive interview with Network18 Group Editor-in-Chief Rahul Joshi, Shah said that the “no competition” and outdated electoral rolls were among the reasons for a low voter turnout.

When asked whether ‘400 paar’ for NDA and 370 for BJP was on track despite a low voter turnout, Shah said, “It is absolutely on track. You will see on counting day, before 12.30 pm, NDA will cross 400, Modi ji will again become Prime Minister.”

“My party’s team and I have done a detailed analysis. We are moving towards the third phase with well over 100 seats from the first two. I don’t see any problem in crossing the target of 400,” he added.

Listing reasons for low voting, Shah said it was because of the revision of electoral rolls after twelve years and “no contest from the other side”.

‘Past 10 Years Will be Written in Golden Letters’

The Home Minister and BJP candidate from Gandhinagar also listed the BJP’s achievements over the past ten years stating that this decade will be written in golden letters. He added how the Narendra Modi government could boast of “terror-free India”, bringing down Naxalism, taking the economy to new heights, Article 370 abrogation in Jammu and Kashmir and Ram Mandir inauguration as its achievements over the past ten years.

“Narendra Modiji has got us almost 100% freedom from terrorism in ten years and you could say Naxalism has been eliminated by around 95%. Today Naxalism has been completely finished off in the seven states of Bihar, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra,” Shah said.

Speaking about how the Modi government pulled the Indian economy out of shambles, Shah said, “In just 10 years, Narendra Modiji has brought about a sea change. The share market is skyrocketing. Even after selling by FIIs, Indian mutual funds have bolstered the market. The balance sheets of all the banks have become very healthy.”

“The country was number 11 in the list of economies, now it is fifth. Be it village or city, forest or desert, coast or city, work is being done for the development of infrastructure everywhere,” he added.

Shah concluded the response to the question on BJP’s achievements by saying, “Whether it is higher education, new economic policy, or Ram Janmabhoomi, ending Article 370 sections, triple talaq, bringing UCC or fundamental changes in the criminal laws of the country, these 10 years will be written about in golden letters in every field. People are also feeling that a pandemic like corona could be fought off so effectively only because of the work of Narendra Modi.”
