KCR Writes To PM Condemning Arrest Of Sisodia In Delhi Liquor Scam
Hyderabad, Mar 5 (Maxim News): Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) has written a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the wake of the arrest of Delhi deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in the Delhi Liquor Scam, strongly condemning it saying that it is a blatant misuse of Central agencies.
According to the statement released by the CM peshi, a letter signed by KCR, Mamata Banerjee, West Bengal Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal, Delhi Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, Chief Minister of Punjab, Tejashwi Yadav of RJD, Farooq Abdullah Jammu and Kashmir National Conference, Sharad Pawar of NCP, Uddhav Thackeray of Shiv Sena and Akhilesh Yadav of SP, they pointed out that the blatant misuse of central agencies against the members of the opposition appeared to suggest that the country had transitioned from being a democracy to an autocracy.
Stating that after a long witch-hunt, Sisodia was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with the Delhi Liquor Scam which has no evidence against him, KCR said the allegations against Sisodia were outrightly baseless and smacked of a political conspiracy.
KCR said that Sisodia’s arrest has enraged people across the country. Manish Sisodia is recognized globally for transforming Delhi’s School Education. He said that Sisodia’s arrest will be cited worldwide as an example of a political witch-hunt and further confirm what the world was only suspecting. He said India’s democratic values stand threatened under an authoritarian BJP regime.
KCR pointed out that out of the total number of key politicians booked, arrested, raided, or interrogated by the investigation agencies under your administration since 2014, the maximum belongs to the opposition. Interestingly, investigation agencies go slow on cases against Opposition politicians who join the BJP. For example, former Congress member and current Assam chief Minister Himata Biswa Sarma were probed by the CBI and the ED in 2014 and 2015 over the Saradha Chit Fund scam, However, the case did not progress after he joined the BJP, he pointed out.
