Amit Shah also stated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made the nation secure and prosperous. He believes that now is the time for Tamil Nadu people to support PM Narendra Modi and vote for the BJP.
"Due to the political corruption of AIADMK and DMK, Tamil Nadu has not been able to develop as much as there are possibilities. PM Narendra Modi has made the nation secure and prosperous. Now, the time has come for Tamil Nadu people to stand with PM Narendra Modi and vote for the BJP. Only BJP can make Tamil culture reach the whole nation," he said.
