NDTV
Referring to raids on Charanjit Channi's relative, Congress said the BJP government at the Centre is insulting a Dalit who was made the chief minister of Punjab.
The Congress on Tuesday accused the BJP and its government at the Centre of defaming Punjab and Punjabiyat by raiding a relative of Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi in an old case, and said the people of the state will give a befitting reply to the saffron party in the upcoming Assembly polls.
Congress's chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said the BJP government is insulting a Dalit who was made the chief minister of Punjab and the Dalits and backward classes would not forgive the party for this.
He also accused the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of working in cahoots with the BJP as its convenor Arvind Kejriwal was the first to attack Mr Channi over the raids conducted by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).
Mr Surjewala alleged that the ED has turned into the "election department" of the BJP.
