Explaining his role in handling agitations, Shah said, "Whenever I became a minister in the state or the Centre, I always got the Home Ministry. Therefore, it is my destiny to deal with protests and also with terrorists."

Shah said that the Home Ministry is responsible for dealing with several major issues facing the country. Referring to the protests taking place across the country, he indicated that handling such agitations is an inherent part of the responsibilities assigned to him.

He also said that his responsibilities are not limited to dealing with protests and other major issues. As a public representative, he is equally responsible for addressing problems faced by people in their everyday lives.

Shah specifically referred to the issue of waterlogging in Gujarat and said that ensuring people do not face such problems is also part of his responsibility.

Shah Also Spoke On Waterlogging

Shah said that there was a severe shortage of N-95 masks in the country, but the government made timely arrangements to meet the demand. Referring to the waterlogging problem in several parts of Gujarat during the rainy season, he said the issue would be resolved before the next monsoon. As a Member of Parliament from Gujarat, he said he is responsible for addressing the problems faced by the people.

He clarified that the Municipal Mayor and Commissioner are not responsible for the issue. Shah said the state received 21 inches of rain after the monsoon season, but arrangements would be made to ensure that even if 30 inches of rain occurs next year, there is no waterlogging.

Shah said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel in Gujarat, people will not be allowed to face any kind of trouble.

Celebrated Raksha Bandhan With Children Suffering From Diabetes

In a post on Instagram, the Union Minister said, "Today, I celebrated the auspicious festival of Raksha Bandhan with daughters suffering from Type 1 diabetes in Ahmedabad from my parliamentary constituency. Children suffering from Type 1 diabetes require lifelong insulin injections, which places a huge financial burden on their families."

He further said, "Under PM Modi's leadership, our government is providing lifelong free insulin to all such children. This visionary initiative, which even many developed countries are still striving to implement, is a testament to the Modi government's commitment to the principles of ‘service, empathy, and security."
