Amit Shah assures to address Lakshadweep issue

A delegation of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) from Lakshadweep met party chief JP Nadda and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday and discussed the situation in the union territory and the concerns of the locals.

Amit Shah assured the BJP delegation that all concerns of the locals will be addressed.

“A BJP delegation from Lakshadweep met party chief JP Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah. We thoroughly discussed the situation in Lakshadweep. Shah said ‘we’re with people of Lakshadweep. We’ll address all of their worries’,” said BJP’s in-charge for Lakshadweep, AP Abdullakutty.

Over the last week, several leaders have called for a new administrator in the Lakshadweep islands, including Lakshadweep MP and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Mohammed Faizal.

Faizal accused Administrator Praful Khoda Patel of implementing anti-people rules and regulations and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah to ‘listen to the outcry of the local people and send in a new Administrator.”
