Former Gujarat Minister of State for Home Amit Shah, accused in Soharabuddin Sheikh and Tulsi Prajapati fake encounter cases, on Sunday said that he would contest the upcoming State Assembly polls.

“I will not only be contesting the elections, but I am going to win this time also with comfortable margins,” Shah, who is currently out on bail, told reporters here.

“Last time, I had won from Sarkhej Assembly seat with the margin of over 2.50 lakh votes. Now, after the delimitation, it has been divided into three constituencies — Vejalpur, Ghatlodia and Naranpura. I can win from any of these with comfortable margins,” he said.
