Union Home Minister Amit Shah joined the Parliamentary discussions on the no-confidence motion brought by Congress, saying the motive for the motion was to create turmoil.“Sometimes in order to check the governments majority, the opposition brings the no-confidence motion. The government and the house have full confidence in Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Whenever you bring a no-confidence motion, you bring arguments over the policies and decisions. It was brought only for kranti [turmoil],” Shah said, adding that the motion is politically motivated.Shah further highlighted the support enjoyed by the present government, saying, “The no-trust motion was brought to mislead people. The house and the people have full confidence in the government.“If there is any confidence in any government than it is in this Modi government after Independence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the most popular PM. This no-confidence motion is one such where neither the people nor the House has disbelief in the government.”VIDEO | “Since Indias Independence, if there is one government which has the trust of the people, it is Narendra Modi-led government,” says Union Home minister Amit Shah in Lok Sabha. #NoConfidenceMotion pic.twitter.com/pMmNSrC97R— Press Trust of India (@PTI_News) August 9, 2023The Home Minister further praised Prime Minister Modi, saying, “I want to tell everyone that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is the first government since independence with two-third majority, and the confidence of people did that, twice. PM Modi is the hardest working PM since independence. Many surveys in the world say that too. He has never taken leave, he works for 17 hours a day.”No-confidence motion brings out real picture of Congress: Amit ShahAmit Shah targeted the newly formed opposition alliance I.N.D.I.A. and the Congress party, saying, “PM Modi gave the slogan – Corruption quit India, dynastic politics quit India, appeasement quit India. The no-confidence motion is a constitutional process, and we have no objection. I believe it brings out the real face of alliances. When Narasimha Rao was in power, a no-confidence motion was brought and the Congress wanted to save the government. They won the motion and sent many political leaders to jail.“Congress had been in power for 35 years they took many decisions that will be remembered. But in nine years of the NDA, over 50 decisions had been taken, which will also be remembered. For 30 years, the country had been suffering from dynastic politics, corruption, and casteism and PM Modi finished all these and gave politics of performance to the country.”Shah said the no-confidence motions can bring out the real picture of a political party, which would be seen by the entire country.“In 1999, during Atal Bihari Vajpayees government, we could have also done that (bribing leaders) and we put forward our points and lost the [no-confidence] motion by one vote, we could have saved the motion. Sometimes, a no-confidence motion brings out the real picture of alliances. We lost by one vote but came back with a majority,” Shah said. “People are watching, and they know everything. We are in politics of development, but they bribe leaders to save their government and principles.”
