India’s ruling party, BJP, will remove illegal Bangladeshi immigrants and Rohingyas from Delhi within two years if it secures a mandate in next month's provincial elections, said Home Minister Amit Shah, a key strategist of the Hindu nationalist party.

Speaking at a public gathering in the Indian capital on Saturday, Shah accused the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government of providing shelter to illegal Bangladeshi immigrants and Rohingyas with the support of the district administration, according to the Indian Express.

The Indian home minister also alleged that the AAP government under Kejriwal's leadership only told lies to the people and indulged in corruption.

"The entire Delhi is today struggling with supply of dirty water and waterlogging. The schools have been finished. There aren't adequate facilities in the hospitals," he alleged.

"I promise you that you make the BJP win, and within two years we will free Delhi from illegal Bangladeshi immigrants and Rohingyas," Shah said, as he alleged that AAP indulged in scams worth crores of rupees during its rule in Delhi.
