News India Live, Digital Desk:Union Home Minister Amit Shah has made a scathing attack on the Congress party regarding the upcoming assembly elections in West Bengal, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry (Assembly Elections 2026). Addressing an election rally, Shah has predicted that Congress’s performance in these states will be at an all-time low and the party is certain to be ‘cleansed’.
Congress-DMK accused of corruption in Puducherry
Addressing a huge rally in Mannadipet, Puducherry, Amit Shah took on Congress and its ally DMK. Citing the CAG report, he alleged that there was massive corruption in Puducherry. Shah said that the people of Puducherry are fed up with Congress’s ‘dynastic politics’ and corruption and this time the NDA government will be formed here with full majority.
West Bengal: “Congress now only a signboard”
After releasing the BJP’s ‘Manifesto’ in West Bengal, Shah said that the main contest in the state is between BJP and TMC. He claimed that Congress and Left parties have now become mere ‘signboards’. Shah predicted that the people of Bengal would completely reject the Congress to end the politics of infiltration and appeasement and the BJP would form the government by winning more than 200 seats.
‘Annamalai Factor’ and Congress’s position in Tamil Nadu
Discussing the politics of Tamil Nadu, Amit Shah said that the graph of BJP has increased rapidly in the state. He predicted that this time the Congress-DMK alliance will face a crushing defeat in Tamil Nadu. According to Shah, due to the respect that the culture and language of Tamil Nadu has received under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, the public is now looking towards the BJP as an alternative to the national parties, while the Congress has lost its ground.
Opposition’s counterattack: Rahul Gandhi’s reply
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has hit back at this prediction of Amit Shah. During the election campaign in Tamil Nadu, Rahul said that Amit Shah and PM Modi want to ‘control Tamil Nadu from Delhi’, which the people of the state will never accept.
