There is a political design behind Jamia, Shaheen Bagh protests: Narendra Modi

New Delhi/IBNS: Targeting the Aam Aadmi Paty and the Congress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is considered as the star campaigner of the Bharatiya Janata Party, on Monday said there is a 'political design' behind the recent protests taking place in Delhi over the new citizenship law passed by his government last year.

Addressing a rally at Delhi's Karkardooma ahead of the crucial Delhi Assembly polls, Modi referred the anti-CAA protests at Shaheen Bagh and Jamia Millia Islamia and said: "Be it Seelampur, Jamia or Shaheen Bagh, protests held over the past several days regarding the Citizenship Amendment Act. Is this just a coincidence? No. There is a political design behind them."

Attacking the AAP and BJP, he said: "If it would have been against one law then it would have ended after assurances of the government. But AAP and Congress are provoking people."

"Delhi and its people are silent now over the vote bank politics that is going on. The people of Delhi are angry.," he said.

He urged people to vote for the BJP in the Feb 8 polls.

"Vote for BJP on Feb 8 to ensure Delhi's development," he said.

The results of the Delhi Assembly polls will be declared on Feb 11.

The AAP stormed to power in 2015.
