NDA government misusing Central agencies to target Opposition, allege Congress leaders

Srikakulam district Congress president, Ambati Krishnarao, and party in-charge of the district, Gadam Venkata Trinadha Rao, alleged that the NDA government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been misusing the Central agencies such as Election Commission of India (ECI), Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and other organisations to target Opposition parties in India. Following a call given by the All India Congress Committee, the party organised a protest named 'Samvidhan Bachao Abhiyan', at G. Sigadam in Srikakulam district, on Sunday. Speaking to media on the occasion, Mr. Krishnarao alleged that the Modi government had misused ED to target Rajiv Gandhi's family members in the so called 'National Herald' case. He said that the people would teach BJP and its alliance partners a lesson in the next elections for misusing the Central agencies. The party's Amadalavalasa in-charge B. Venkataramana, Etcherla in-charge Ijjurothu Ramana and others participated in the protest.
