ED action against Rahul: K’taka Cong to lay siege to Raj Bhavan

The Congress’ Karnataka unit will lay siege to Raj Bhavan on Thursday in protest against the “torture” meted out to its national leader Rahul Gandhi by the Enforcement Directorate, which is questioning him in the National Herald money laundering case, the party announced today.

It also accused the BJP government at the Centre of indulging in “vendetta politics.” Congress stands behind the Gandhi family and will not fear jail, the KPCC leadership said, as it hit out at the central government and Delhi police for alleged atrocities against its workers and leaders in the national capital and not allowing them to go to the AICC office.

Further, on Friday morning in all districts a protest will be held in front of central government’s offices there.
