Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s bags were checked by Election Commission (EC) officials in Maharashtra’s Hingoli district on Friday, in the latest of a series of examinations of the luggage of high-profile political leaders visiting the poll-bound state, amid allegations that only the Opposition was being targeted.
In a post on X, Shah shared a video of polling officials checking his luggage in the chopper as he arrived at Hingoli assembly seat to address an election rally.
“Today, during my election campaign in Hingoli Assembly constituency of Maharashtra, my helicopter was inspected by Election Commission officials. BJP believes in fair elections and healthy election system and follows all the rules made by the Honourable Election Commission,” he wrote on the micro-blogging platform.
“We all must contribute to a healthy election system and perform our duties in keeping India as the strongest democracy in the world,” he added.
