Back on the campaign trail after being released from Tihar Jail on interim bail, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday said that voting for Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the 2024 Lok Sabha election would amount to voting for Amit Shah as Prime Minister as Mr. Modi would be set to retire from politics as he turns 75 on September 17, 2025.
However, responding to his comments, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that Mr. Modi would continue as PM for the full term, and the BJP’s constitution did not mention any retirement age.
