Launching a scathing attack on the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, over his allegations of vote theft, Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday (October 22, 2026) claimed that the Congress will not form a government in the Centre in the next 30 years.
Hitting back, the Congress said the BJP was responding in desperation, adding that vote theft is a “proven reality”.
He lost Delhi and has now set up camp in Punjab and is not even allowing the Chief Minister there to work,” Mr. The Home Minister also attacked the Aam Aadmi Party. “Kejriwal ji, listen carefully: the politics of excuses does not last long. Results have to be delivered.
Shah said, vowing to defeat AAP in the upcoming Assembly election and put an end to the drug trade in Punjab by 2029.
Given the flourishing of the drug trade in Punjab under the AAP government, the people of the State have now decided to vote the BJP-led NDA to power there, he said.

Earlier reporting noted: Reiterating his previous remark, HM Shah told the Congress party that even before the BJP-led NDA came to power at the Centre, the grand old party was already out of power in many states.
The Home Minister said that the Opposition could not negate the country’s mandate through such political tactics and mobocracy. If one wants to win elections, he said, one should go among the people to understand their sufferings and pains; nothing is achieved through dharnas and protests. “Wherever you have been elected, bring schemes and do work to remove the people’s sorrows, pains, sufferings, and disorder; otherwise, even the remaining existence will come to an end,” Mr. Shah said.
“When I say that the BJP’s government will remain for 30 years, they tell the people that ‘vote chori is happening, otherwise how would Amit Shah know this’. The kind of negative politics you are doing, based on this, I can say that for the next 30 years, your government will not come to power,” the Home Minister said. Because bJP governments are continuously being elected in States across the country, the Home Minister said that a different game was currently being played in Delhi.
Amit Shah was born here, lives here, and remains among the people of the country, and does not have to go abroad every six months. “This is troubling the opponents, which is why they are making the excuse of vote chori .
The Home Minister said that when the Congress and its allies lose elections, they sometimes make excuses about electronic voting machines (EVMs), and sometimes about alleged vote theft. They are claiming that the BJP does not come to power through popular votes, but by stealing votes,” he said.
