Amit Shah Interacts With Children, Has Food At NGO Formed In His Mother’s Memory

Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah along with his family had lunch at the ‘Kusumba Anna Kshetra’ kitchen today, which is being run in memory of his mother, in his native village Manasa in Gujarat. The kitchen provides free food to the needy on a daily basis. The Home Minister was seen having food and interacting with the children at the Anna Kshetra. Later, he also distributed toys and other materials to Anganwadi students in Gandhinagar, Gujarat.

Among other engagements in Gujarat, HM Shah today (August 13) also inspected the Harami Nala and the Border Security Force’s (BSF) Border Observation Posts (BOPs). He said, “Inspected the Harami Nala Creek in Kutch, Gujarat, and also the BSF BOPs there. It is one of the most inhospitable areas along the Indo-Pak border. The name Harami Nala is derived from its deceptive nature and also from its notoriety of being exploited by infiltrators in the past,” Shah said on X (formerly known as Twitter).

During the day, he also visited the Bahuchar Mata temple in his native village Manasa and prayed for the well being of the people. “I had darshan and paid obeisance to Kuldevi Bahuchar Mata in my native place Manasa and also prayed for the wellbeing of the citizens,” Amit Shah said on X.
