As many as 50 protestors including senior Congress leaders were detained on Friday after they staged a demonstration in Kalaburagi to express resentment over the enforcement directorate’s (ED) questioning Congress president Sonia Gandhi in the National Herald case.
Congress leader and Opposition Chief Whip in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly Ajay Singh and KPCC Working President Eshwar Khandre alleged that the BJP-led government was misusing the investigation agencies.
Mr. Khandre alleged that the enforcement directorate seems to be working under the BJP party rather than the government. Their intention is to suppress every voice being raised against the government. The agencies should work in a free and fair manner instead of playing hand in glove with the government.
