Addressing a public meeting after inaugurating the Kaushambi Mahotsav, he exhorted people to elect Narendra Modi as prime minister once again in 2024 for the all-around welfare of all sections of society.
भारतीय इतिहास के सभी कालखंडों में कौशाम्बी सबसे समृद्ध नगर में से एक के रूप में जाना जाता था। विपक्षी पार्टियों के शासन में यह नगर अपनी पहचान व संस्कृति खो रहा था।

”The country will not forgive opposition parties for disrupting Parliament proceedings over Rahul Gandhi’s disqualification… Democracy is not in danger, it is casteism and dynastic politics (‘parivarwad’) which are in danger,” Shah said.
आज कौशाम्बी महोत्सव से ₹613 करोड़ की 117 विकास योजनाओं का उद्घाटन व शिलान्यास हुआ।

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, his deputies Keshav Prasad Maurya and Brajesh Pathak, and state BJP president Bhupendra Chaudhry also attended the event. In a big blow to the Congress, its leader Rahul Gandhi was on March 24 disqualified from Lok Sabha, nearly 24 hours after a Surat court convicted him in a defamation case, an action the opposition party slammed as BJP’s ”vindictive politics” and vowed to fight legally and politically.
The court in Surat sentenced Gandhi to two years in jail in a defamation case, filed on a complaint by BJP MLA Purnesh Modi for his remark, ”How come all thieves have Modi as the common surname?” The disqualification will bar 52-year-old Gandhi, a four-time MP, from contesting polls for eight years unless a higher court stays his conviction and sentence.
