Earlier country-made pistols were produced in UP, now cannon balls are manufactured: Shah
Amit Shah on Saturday highlighted Uttar Pradesh's transformation from a state known for producing country-made pistols to one now manufacturing cannon balls. Addressing an election rally in Lalitpur in favour of BJP's Jhansi candidate Anurag Sharma, who is eyeing a second term, the Union home minister said the state started developing only after Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister and Yogi Adityanath the Chief Minister.
«There was a time when country-made pistols were produced in Uttar Pradesh. But PM Modi built a defence corridor in Bundelkhand, and now cannon balls are made here,» Shah said.
He added that «if Pakistan makes any mistake», the shells made in Bundelkhand will be used to «destroy» the country.
Shah also slammed Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar's atom bomb remark that has sparked a political row.
