Union Home Minister Amit Shah criticized Rahul Gandhi and the INDIA bloc for opposing Bihar's Intensive Electoral Roll Revision (SIR), questioning their stance on infiltrators' voting rights. Speaking in Sitamarhi, Shah accused the RJD and Congress of protecting infiltrators as a vote bank and highlighted the NDA's commitment to removing their names from voter lists. He also slammed the opposition's position on the 'Operation Sindoor' debate and contrasted the Modi government's national security record with that of the UPA regime. Shah further criticized the RJD's development record in Bihar, citing increased railway infrastructure funding under the current government compared to Lalu Prasad Yadav's tenure.
