Amit Shah News: Recently, Home Minister Amit Shah once again targeted the Congress party over the statement of Pakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Asif. Asif had said in the context of the restoration of Article 370 that Pakistan is with the Congress and the National Conference. This statement has raised a new controversy in Indian politics, in which Amit Shah clearly 'exposed' the Congress.Congress and Pakistan's 'intentions'Amit Shah wrote on the social media platform X, "Pakistan's Defense Minister's talk of Congress and NC's support on Article 370 and 35A has once again exposed the Congress." His statement makes it clear that the intentions of Congress and Pakistan are the same. Shah also says that in the last few years Rahul Gandhi has hurt the sentiments of the countrymen and has always stood with anti-India forces.Role of Rahul GandhiThe Home Minister criticized Rahul Gandhi's Congress party and said, "Congress has always been hand in glove with anti-national forces." Shah's argument shows that the policies of Congress and its leaders are somehow connected with the thinking of Pakistan. He stressed that the return of Article 370 is not possible under the Modi government, nor will terrorism be promoted.NC's responseNational Conference leaders have also reacted to Khawaja Asif's statement. Omar Abdullah said, "What do we have to do with Pakistan, they should look at their country." He made it clear that his focus is on his country, not on Pakistan's politics. At the same time, NC chief Farooq Abdullah said that he is a citizen of India and has nothing to do with Pakistan's words.Khwaja Asif's statementPakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said on a news channel that the restoration of Article 370 and 35A is possible in Kashmir. He said, "Both Congress and National Conference have a significant presence, and the people of Kashmir Valley are very motivated about this issue." His statement has given rise to a new debate in Indian politics, and it will be interesting to see what further reactions come to it.ConclusionHome Minister Amit Shah's attack on Congress is a symbol of the fact that the political gap between India and Pakistan is deep not only on the border, but also in internal politics. Khawaja Asif's statement has made it clear that naming Pakistan in Indian politics always causes controversy. It will be interesting to see what kind of strategy Congress adopts on this issue and whether this exchange of statements continues further.
