Did Amit Shah Cast Doubts On BJP's Election Promises? Viral Claim Is False

In the original video, Amit Shah was referring to the guarantees made by the Congress and not by the Prime Minister.
A video of Home Minister Amit Shah is being shared with a misleading claim that he has said election promises made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi hold no meaning and are forgotten after the polls are over.
A purported video of Home Minister Amit Shah is being shared on social media with a claim that he said there is no meaning to the promises made during elections, implying that he was referring to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). In the six-second clip, Shah can be heard saying, "That's why I say there is no meaning to this 'guarantee'. They say it during elections and then forget."
Sharing the video, a user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote that this is a poll gimmick and urged the voters to be careful, adding that this is a "big expose on #ModikiGuarantee by Amit Shah." Archived versions of such posts can be found here and here. The clip has also gained traction on Facebook and Instagram, where users have said that Mr Shah himself "exposed" his party.
