Amit Shah also claimed that scraping of Articles 370 and 35A has not only brought democracy to the grassroots but also helped check insurgency and enabled a crackdown on terrorism in the valley. It was the achievement of the Modi government as he was implementing a policy of hot pursuit against terrorists and separatists like Hurriyat.
The senior BJP leader also criticized political opponents in the state. He said that just three families used to rule Jammu and Kashmir but now the power was with 30,000 people elected to panchayats and district councils.
He also said that news of stone pelting used to come from Jammu and Kashmir. Now, there was no news of stone pelting. Because Narendra Modi has worked to empower the youth of Jammu and Kashmir. From independence till 2019, industrial investment of 15 thousand crore rupees came to Jammu and Kashmir. In these three years, from 2019 till now, industrial investment of 56 thousand crore rupees has come to the state.

Watch: Giriraj Singh says Mamata Banerjee doing thumka at film festival is not appropriate, Lok Sabha MP Mahua Moitra reacts
The official handle of Trinamool Congress shared the video in which Giriraj said thumka and also swung his body from side to side. The TMC said this video evidence shows Singh not just uttering the word thumka twice but also making gestures that leave no room for misinterpretation.

BJP MP Giriraj Singh has stirred a controversy on Wednesday after he criticized West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee’s participation in the Kolkata International Film Festival where she was seen shaking a leg with Bollywood actor Salman Khan. In video circulating on social media Giriraj Singh was seen saying that Mamata Banerjee doing thumka at the film festival is not appropriate.

The official handle of Trinamool Congress shared the video in which Giriraj said thumka and also swung his body from side to side. The TMC said this video evidence shows Singh not just uttering the word thumka twice but also making gestures that leave no room for misinterpretation. The party said Singh’s denial is another textbook example of BJP strategy to engage in shameful conduct and then brazenly defend it.
The party added Union Minister Giriraj Singh bjp now joins the list of leaders who made degrading comments about Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. The TMC said it is evident the BJP leaders find it incredibily hard to fathom a woman in power challenging their authority. The party said the BJP’s archaic mindset is steeped in gender biases is blatantly on display.
Lok Sabha MP Mahua Moitra said Giriraj Singh’s words against the only woman chief minister of India is shocking. She told Giriraj Singh that the reason they danced in Bengal is because they don’t have to put up with the likes of him. She said the misogyny and patriarchy that is practiced by the BJP every single day tell a different story altogether.
