Amit Shah paid a visit to families whose members were allegedly forced to migrate during the Samajwadi Party rule.
Putting the spotlight on the issue of alleged “exodus” of Hindus from Kairana before 2017, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday visited the affected families who have since returned here as he began his door-to-door in western Uttar Pradesh.
Accompanied by party workers and leaders wearing saffron caps and stoles with the BJP election symbol, Mr. Shah treaded the rain-drenched lane in the winter chill and distributed pamphlets mentioning the achievements of the BJP government, amidst intermittent shouts of "Jai Shri Ram' and 'Bharat Mata ki Jai'.
This is the first political programme by Mr. Shah in Uttar Pradesh after the assembly poll dates were announced and the choice of Kairana is significant as BJP leaders had alleged that a large number of Hindus were forced to migrate from the area due to threats during the Samajwadi Party rule, making it a big poll issue in 2017.
