selectively targeting the people of the opposition by using the investigating
agencies and the media pro to the ruling party.
Rahul Gandhi tweeted, "The
arrest of DK Shivakumar is another example of the vendetta politics unleashed
by the Govt, using agencies like the ED/CBI & a pliant media to selectively
target individuals. "
Apart from Rahul Gandhi, Congress spokesperson Manish Tiwari
also said, 'Congress is not afraid of this repression. We will continue to
raise our voice like a strong opposition party to preserve India's democracy.

opposition leaders, especially Congress leaders, are being arrested.
Shivkumar's fault was that he tried to save the MLAs in Karnataka from the horse
trading. 'DK Shivakumar was arrested on Tuesday night on charges of money
laundering.
