Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said it is time to punish the "tukde-tukde gang" in Delhi for anti-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) protests and violence in Delhi.

Shah indirectly blamed opposition parties including Congress for fanning the violence that erupted in Delhi during anti-CAA demonstrations.He also called people of Delhi to punish them for the unrest witnessed in Delhia few days ago.

"The opposition led by Congress created confusion about the Citizenship Amendment Act. By misleading people on the CAA, the oppositions poiled the peaceful atmosphere of Delhi," Shah said on the recent anti CAA protests, some of which turned violent.

The home minister also blamed opposition parties forcreating confusion over CAA, which according to him triggered the violent protests.

Shah further questioned why opposition parties kept silenton CAA when it was being discussed in Parliament and added that they started spreading rumours about CAA as soon as the amendment was passed.

Amit Shah also slammed the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAPgovernment in Delhi during an event organised by the Delhi DevelopmentAuthority (DDA) and said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will form the nextgovernment in the national capital.

Shah accused the Kejriwal government of "stealingcredit" for developmental work done by the central government in Delhi."PrimeMinister Narendra Modi has forced everyone to follow the work culture. However,Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Ji has done something entirely new. Hethought, why work? Why allot budgets and lay foundation stones for developmentprojects? Work is already being done, just put your name on it," Shahsaid.

Amit Shah's scathing attack on the Kejriwal government comesweeks before the schedule of assembly elections in Delhi.

On Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also slammed the AAPgovernment in the national capital for not doing enough to either combat airpollution or provide clean drinking water.

"These people used to claim that each household inDelhi gets clean drinking water. They claimed to provide drinking water fromthe tap, but you all know the reality. They lied to you," PM Modi had saidat a rally in Ramlila Ground.
