BJP unleashing central agencies on oppn leaders: Cheema

Chandigarh: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday launched statewide protests against the BJP-led Central govt, alleging that "the BJP is misusing central agencies like the Enforcement Directorate (ED), the CBI and the Income Tax Department to target opposition leaders and destabilise non-BJP govts".Senior AAP leader and Punjab minister Harpal Singh Cheema said, "The BJP has turned agencies like ED, CBI and Income Tax into political weapons. Whenever the BJP faces political defeat or resistance, it unleashes central agencies on opposition leaders. Bengal was targeted first and now Punjab is being attacked because the BJP cannot digest the growing popularity of AAP and the pro-people work being done by the Bhagwant Mann govt."
