AAP supremo and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s old tweet was raked up on Social Media on Friday (31 May) by users in which he had predicted that Amit Shah would become India’s next Home Minister.
In the tweet, Kejriwal had tried to train his guns on Prime Minster Modi by spreading fear among his supporters by predicting doom and gloom as Amit Shah would become the Home Minister if BJP returned back to power. Kejriwal also appealed to people to think before they voted for preventing Prime Minister Modi’s reelection.

People didn’t pay much attention to Kejriwal’s ‘warnings’ and went ahead to reelect Prime Minister Modi with a historic seat tally of 303 for the BJP. Kejriwal’s AAP though fared poorly and managed to win only one seat throughout India.
Ahead of the portfolio distribution it was widely speculated that Shah would get the Finance ministry and only a few had predicted the Home Ministry portfolio for the BJP president.
