Shiv Sena slammed Union Home Minister Amit Shah for his absence when Delhi violence was taking place. “When Delhi was burning and when people were showcasing their anger, where was Union Home Minister Amit Shah then? What was he doing? These questions are being raised. 38 people have lost their lives and severe damage to public property has also occurred,” the party’s mouthpiece Saamana said.
“Had there been a Congress or any other coalition government in the Centre then the resignation of the Home Minister would have been demanded,” it said.
Shiv Sena also hit out at opposition in the centre for not caring out a march and demanding resignation of Amit Shah.

“Still, Sonia Gandhi has demanded the resignation of the Home Minister. 38 people killed in the national capital, including a policeman, and half of the Centre’s Cabinet ministers were in Ahmedabad at that time to welcome Trump,” the party added.
“Why was the Home Minister not visible (during the violence)? The country got a strong Home Minister but he was not visible and this is shocking. During the Assembly elections in Delhi, Amit Shah, despite being the Home Minister took out ample time for his campaigning. But he was not visible when the whole of Delhi was burning. The Opposition can create a stir during the Parliament session on this issue,” the Sena further said.-Inputs from India.com
