Bareilly | Railways Minister Piyush Goyal exuded confidence on Sunday that the Bharatiya Janata Party would win the Amethi Lok Sabha seat, which is represented by Congress chief Rahul Gandhi.
“In the past five years, notable work has been done in every sector. The BJP will win more seats as compared to the previous election. The BJP will also win Amethi — the traditional seat of the Congress,” Goyal said at the party’s “vijay sankalp sabha” here.
The Union minister attacked Gandhi over reports that the Congress leader might also contest from Wayanad in Kerala. “He (Rahul) is running away from UP. Far from UP, he is going to Kerala and will contest the elections from there. Smriti Irani will register a massive win from Amethi,” Goyal said. The BJP leader described the Congress as beng a party of “one family”. “It is now involved in saving the family,” Goyal added.
The railways minister claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has capability to control terrorism. “Our armed forces have destroyed the hideouts of terrorists. We have hit at the root of the terrorism,” he added.
