Regarding the economy, Shah said that India had moved past the economic slowdown, citing startups, policies, and industrial developments. He also expressed satisfaction with his tenure as Union Home Minister, citing significant improvements in the internal security situation in Kashmir and the elimination of left-wing extremism in Bihar and Jharkhand.

Shah's statements at the India Today Conclave highlighted the Congress party's poor performance in the Northeast elections despite Rahul Gandhi's efforts to unite the country.
