Congress leader Shashi Tharoor slammed legal action against celebrities who wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi over increasing incidents of mob lynching in the country. Tharoor tweeted, 'This is a shocking & chilling development. Does Article 19 of the Constitution have no meaning for a police officer & a Chief Judicial Magistrate? Where is our democracy heading if free expression is countered by this kind of "legal" harassment?' Earlier today, Rahul Gandhi said, 'Everybody knows what is going on in the country. It is not a secret. In fact, the whole world knows it. We are moving into an authoritarian state. It is very clear. Anybody who says anything against the Prime Minister and the government is put in jails.'
