‘Your turn won’t come for 30 years’: Amit Shah takes swipe at Rahul Gandhi’s ‘vote chori’ claims
- On Thursday, October 22, 2026, Union Home Minister Amit Shah inaugurated 43 Delhi Jal Board projects worth ₹8,941 crore in Dwarka, claiming Congress would not form a government for the next 30 years.
- Shah blamed previous governments for 30 years of neglect, alleging they allowed sewage and 2,000 tonnes of cow dung from dairies to be dumped into the Yamuna River annually.
- Water Minister Parvesh Verma noted the projects include upgrading eight sewage treatment plants, raising capacity from 78.2 MGD to 140.8 MGD, benefiting about 78.5 lakh people across 358 unauthorized colonies and 113 villages.
- Congress MP Jairam Ramesh claimed "Vote Chori is a proven reality," arguing ECI data suggests over 10 crore Indians risk losing their Constitutional right to vote.
- Shah warned AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal that his party would be "rooted out" of Punjab, asserting voters would deliver a "befitting reply" to the AAP government.
