Amit Shah to file nomination from Gandhinagar
- Today is a big day... I stand here today before filing my nomination from Gandhinagar.
- I started here in 1982 as a booth-level worker...
- From distributing pamphlets, putting up posters, doing booth-level work, today I am fortunate that my party - the BJP - has made me the national president of the world's largest party. It has been a great journey for me...
- If you take out BJP from my life, you will be left with zero/nothing (shunya).
- I am blessed that I am getting to contest from the very seat from which veteran leaders like Atal Bihari Vajpayee and LK Advani stood. This is an honour for me.
Home minster Rajnath Singh in Gandhinagar for Amit Shah
- I have come here to congratulate Amit Shah on this significant move. He is going to contest from the seat where our veteran leader LK Advani used to contest. This is a big move, and I am sure Amit Shah will live up to the expectations of this constituency.
- Both NDA and BJP had achieved a full majority in the 2014 polls. We still took everyone along. Our allies being present here is a sign that come-what-may, we stand together.
- India has taken a big leap in the world stage, all thanks to our prime minister Narendra Modi
- And people like Rahul Gandhi say 'Prime Minister Chor Hai'?
- I appeal you all to come together and convey a message to Rahul Gandhi that "Pradhan Mantri chor nahi hai, pradhan mantra pure hai"
- If Indira Gandhi can get credit for dividing Pakistan, why shouldn't PM Narendra Modi get credit for Balakot strike, asks Rajnath Singh.
