Union Home Minister Amit Shah has revealed what he plans to do after retiring from politics. Speaking at the 'Sahkar Samvaad' event in Ahmedabad, he said that once he steps away from public life, he wants to focus on natural farming and spend more time reading Hindu texts like the Vedas and Upanishads.
He called natural farming (also known as organic farming) a scientific method that is very helpful for both health and the environment. Shah explained that food grown using chemical fertilizers, like wheat, can lead to serious health problems such as blood pressure issues, diabetes, thyroid disorders, and even cancer.
He added, 'Natural farming helps keep the body healthy and reduces the need for medicines.'
Shah also shared his personal experience, saying that since switching to natural methods on his own farmland, his crop yield has increased by 1.5 times.
He said he is passionate about this method of farming and looks forward to fully dedicating his time to it, along with studying spiritual texts, once he retires from politics. Amit Shah opens up about his health journey and shares tips for youth
Some months ago, Union Home Minister Amit Shah talked about his health transformation, sharing how his lifestyle changed for the better through simple and healthy habits.
Speaking on World Liver Day, Shah said that since May 2019, he has seen a big improvement in his health. He gave credit to proper sleep, clean water, balanced food, and regular exercise. Because of these habits, he said, 'I have not needed any allopathic (modern) medicines in the last 4.5 years.'
He also gave a message to young people, advising them to: Do at least 2 hours of physical exercise every day
Get 6 hours of proper sleep each night
He said that by following these simple steps, the youth can stay healthy and make the most of their lives. He reminded them that they still have 40 to 50 years ahead and can play a big role in building the future of the country.

It proposed institutional mechanisms for multi-ministerial coordination, including the formation of a Joint National Committee, annual progress reporting and a national platform for linking affected individuals to support services. Organised by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, the summit gathered over 600 youth leaders, representatives from 120+ spiritual and socio-cultural organisations, academicians, and domain experts. 'The Kashi Declaration is not just a document, but a shared Sankalp (resolve) for the Yuva Shakti of Bharat,' stated Union minister for youth affairs and sports Dr Mansukh Mandaviya. 'Bharat's Spiritual strength has always guided Bharat through its crises. This is why spiritual institutions must now lead the charge in creating a Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat. They will serve as the backbone of this Maha Abhiyan,' he added. Himachal Pradesh governor Shiv Pratap Shukla said: 'This sacred land of Kashi is the cradle of Sanatan Chetna (eternal consciousness), where discipline and values guide life's journey towards moksha. We are not just gathering; we are sowing seeds that will one day grow into a strong tree of national transformation.' He further cautioned: 'If a nation where 65% of the population is youth falls prey to addiction, only those who break free from it will be able to build the future.' The summit featured deliberations across four plenary sessions. These deliberations formed the foundation of the Kashi Declaration that will serve as a guiding charter, with progress to be reviewed during the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue 2026. The keynote address of Session 4 was delivered by Nitin Agarwal, minister of state (independent charge) for excise and prohibition, Uttar Pradesh. Several dignitaries participated in sessions. They included Union minister for social justice and empowerment Dr Virendra Kumar, Union culture and tourism minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, Uttar Pradesh minister for labour and employment Anil Rajbhar, Union minister of state for home affairs Nityanand Rai, Union minister of state for youth affairs and sports Raksha Nikhil Khadse and Uttar Pradesh sports minister Girish Chandra Yadav.

Varanasi: The Kashi Declaration, affirming a national consensus to treat substance abuse as a multi-faceted public health and societal challenge and suggesting a whole-of-government and whole-of-society approach, was adopted at the Youth Spiritual Summit here on Sunday. 'If a nation, where 65 per cent of the population is youth, falls prey to addiction, only those who break free from it will be able to build the future,' said Union Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports Mansukh Mandaviya. Addressing the Summit, the Union Minister said, 'We have reflected deeply over the last three days across diverse thematic sessions. Based on this collective chintan, the Kashi Declaration is born, not just as a document, but as a shared sankalp for the Yuva Shakti of Bharat.' The Youth Spiritual Summit on the theme Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat culminated at the Rudraksh International Convention Centre in Varanasi with the formal adoption of the Kashi Declaration. Organised by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, the Summit brought together more than 600 youth leaders, representatives from over 120 spiritual and socio-cultural organisations, academicians, and domain experts.
