Union Home Minister Amit Shah expressed deep sorrow over the death of former Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, calling it “hard to believe.” In a post on X, Amit Shah wrote, “I worked for a long time in the organisation with former Gujarat Chief Minister Vijaybhai Rupani ji. Whether it was strengthening the organisation as the state president or keeping Gujarat’s development journey moving as the Chief Minister, Vijaybhai fulfilled every responsibility with full responsibility. It is difficult to believe that he is no longer amongst us.”

Mr Shah remembered Mr Rupani as a dedicated leader who always worked with discipline and commitment toward the growth of the party and the state.
Mr Shah, who worked closely with Mr Rupani during this period, highlighted his disciplined work ethic and loyalty to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
“Calm and thoughtful by nature, Rupani ji’s loyalty and discipline towards the organisation were amazing,” Mr Shah said in his tribute.
