Vadra part of corruption debate, not personal attack: Amit Shah to NDTV

BJP leader Amit Shah during an interview with NDTV

Delhi: The BJP is fighting the Lok Sabha election based on the "politics of performance, not polarisation", Narendra Modi's close aide Amit Shah said in an interview to NDTV.

Here are the highlights of the interview:

  • Only used 'revenge' in context of voting out government

  • Didn't mean to violate the Model Code of Election Commission

  • I didn't think I used a wrong word but if the Election Commission thinks so, I respect their decision totally

  • Election Commission is the supreme authority, hence - described my words as no ball

  • My speech in Shamli now a closed chapter

  • Robert Vadra has been named in the context of corruption, how is it a personal attack

  • Don't want to get into a Tu Tu Mein Mein over allegations by Priyanka Gandhi

  • On 'snooping' allegations, will depose before probe commission in Gujarat when needed

  • Not right to say more on snooping allegations till probe report submitted

  • Not correct to talk about Pakistan policy till a new government takes shape

  • We have only said Pakistani infiltrators will be treated with a firm hand

  • Who is Congress to talk about a one-man party with their politics centred on one family?

  • At least Modi has been a Chief Minister for 13 years, what has Rahul Gandhi done?

  • I'm a small worker, don't see any big role for myself in a new government
