New Delhi, 14/6:Opposition on Wednesday rallied behind DMK after the arrest of its minister V Senthil Balaji with parties strongly condemning the action by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and describing it as “political harassment and vendetta” by the Modi government.
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said none of them in the Opposition would be intimidated by “such brazen moves”, which is “nothing but political harassment and vendetta by the Modi government against those opposed to it.”
In a statement, the AAP described the arrest as “inhumane” as it came despite knowing his health condition and it raised “serious concerns” about the working of the central agency.
Standing in solidarity with the minister and all those Opposition leaders who were “victims of BJP’s undemocratic targeting”, it said the arrest came when the country is still grieving a devastating rail accident and issues of unemployment, inflation and alarming data breaches from CoWin jeopardising our citizens’ privacy and security and it showed that the government’s priorities are “misplaced”.
