‘The only’ Machiavellian Move ‘by Raid Raj BJP: Cong responds to DK Shivakumar raids.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was accused by the Congress Karnataka unit on Monday of using the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) as an electoral tool following the agency’s raids at different locations linked to state leader of the party DK Shivakumar with his brother DK Suresh.

The CBI performs raids at 14 sites, including the homes of representatives and business establishments. Police leaders close with the matter said that as many as 60 CBI men were involved in the raids.

The brothers’ premises in Ramanagar, Kanakapura, Bengaluru, Delhi, and Mumbai are places that are being raided.

“The assault by the CBI is a permanent electoral mechanism for the BJP. The fear of the BJP losing the by-election. The Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee posted on twitter in Kannada, “We condemn the CBI assault on hate politics.”

Randeep Singh Surjewala, the party’s chief spokesman, called the CBI a pawn of the Modi-Yeddyurappa duo and said that the move would not stop them.

The Modi-Yeddyurappa duo’s insidious game of threats & machinations being executed by a CBI marionette by raiding @DKShivakumar will not stop us.

The CBI should expose the corruption layers in Yeddyurappa Govt. ‘Raid Raj’ is the only ‘Machiavellian Pass’ among them! “Surjewala was tweeting.

“He added in another tweet that the” devious attempts “of Modi and Yeddyurappa would only intensify the resolve of the Congress party to fight for people and expose the” maladministration “of BJP.”

Let the frontal organizations of Modi & Yeddyurappa Govts & BJP, i.e. CBI-ED-Income Tax, realize that Congress workers & leaders would not be cowed down or bowed down before such devious attempts.

“Our determination to fight for people & expose the maladministration of BJP only gets greater,” he wrote.

Opposition leader and former Chief Minister of Karnataka, Siddaramaiah, also take to the microblogging site to condemn the CBI raids and accuse the BJP of grudge politics. @BJP4India has always attempted to engage and deceive public interest in vindictive politics.

The new CBI raid on the house of @KPCCP President @DKShivakumar is another attempt to sabotage our by-poll planning. I oppose this strongly,’ he tweeted.

“working president Saleem Ahmed of the State Congress told media,” Fearing the loss of Sira and RR Nagar by-polls, the BJP is resorting to these tactics. We’re not going to be cowed down and fight against this.

Congress will hold a protest meeting at its Bengaluru headquarters against the step by CBI on KPCC Leader Shivakumar.
