New Delhi: The Income Tax ‘survey’ at the BBC offices in Delhi and Mumbai over allegations of international taxation and transfer pricing irregularities is gaining political momentum. After the Congress, the Samajwadi Party has also targeted the Central government over the survey. SP Chief Akhilesh Yadav called it a declaration of 'ideological emergency'.
BBC पर छापे की ख़बर ‘वैचारिक आपातकाल’ की घोषणा है। @BBCIndia

Samajwadi Party Supremo and former CM of UP Akhilesh Yadav took to twitter and wrote, "The news of IT raid at BBC offices is a declaration of 'ideological emergency'."
लोकतंत्र को ख़त्म कर रही भाजपा सरकार!

दिल्ली में बीबीसी के ऑफिस पर आयकर विभाग की जबरन छापेमारी बेहद निंदनीय।
क्या भाजपा सरकार हर आवाज़ को दबाना चाहती है जो उनके या उनके नेताओं के उत्पीड़न के विरुद्ध मुखर होगा?
सरकार याद रखे समय और सत्ता बदलती है लेकिन लोकतंत्र अमर है।
The Samajwadi Party also took to twitter, “The BJP government is destroying democracy! The raid by the Income Tax Department at the BBC offices is highly condemnable. Does the BJP government want to suppress every voice that will speak out against the repression and oppression by BJP or their leaders?"
