Taking a dig at the Congress and its veteran leader Sonia Gandhi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah Wednesday promised that the grand old party will fail to succeed once again in poll-bound Maharashtra.

Likening the electoral battle with that of a 'Rahul Baba' plane, Amit Shah said the aircraft crashed 20 times in the past and is gearing up for the same fate for the 21st time.

Addressing a rally at Jintur in Mahrashtra's Parbhani district, Shah said: "Sonia ji tried to land the plane named 'Rahul Baba' 20 times but the plane crashed 20 times. Now again, an attempt is being made to land the plane for the 21st time in Maharashtra. Sonia ji, your 'Rahul plane' is going to crash for the 21st time."

The Home Minister accused the Congress of deliberately delaying the construction of the Ram Temple at Ayodhya for many years.

"PM Narendra Modi got the Ram Temple built and the Kashi Vishwanath corridor which was demolished by Aurangzeb. Now, you should be ready to visit Gujarat as the Somnath temple is also being made of gold," he said.

Shah even went on to claim that the opposition alliance Maha Vikas Aghadi will be "wiped out" from Maharashtra in this election.

"I have visited all the places like Vidarbha, North Maharashtra, West Maharashtra, Konkan, Mumbai and Marathwada. Do you want to know the result of the Maharashtra Assembly elections? Listen to me, on November 23, the Maha Vikas Aghadi is going to be wiped out from Maharashtra. On November 23, the Mahayuti (grand alliance) government will be formed here under the leadership of Modi ji," he said.

Attacking the Congress, Shah said Rahul Gandhi's fourth generation would not be able to bring back Article 370 which granted special status to the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir.

"Rahul Baba's party, Congress, and his colleagues have passed a resolution in Kashmir to bring back Article 370. Rahul Baba, listen carefully, not only you, but even if your fourth generation comes, it cannot bring back Article 370," he said.

Maharashtra will vote for a new assembly on November 20 and the counting will take place on November 23.
