Congress trying to influence probe agencies: JP Nadda

New Delhi: BJP president JP Nadda claimed on Wednesday that the Congress Party is trying to influence and pressurise law enforcement agencies to veil the truth. He was reacting to Congress's protest over Enforcement Directorate interrogating Rahul and Sonia Gandhis in the National Herald case, IANS reported.

Nadda said that if Congress is dissatisfied with probes by central agencies, they could approach courts.

He said, "The Congress party which is holding protests over the investigation into corruption cases against their top leadership, it is not 'satyagraha', but it is 'duragraha' in support of lies and corruption."

According to Nadda, protesting against the investigations by law enforcement agencies as well as trying to sabotage the probe into corruption cases prove that the Congress party is legally weak in contending the case and wishes that the truth should not come out.

Nadda said, "The Supreme Court has recently passed a judgment on the powers and jurisdiction of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and the Enforcement Directorate. The Supreme Court has upheld the PMLA and has also validated the jurisdiction of the ED. We honour and respect our Supreme Court and also our Constitution and our law."

Nadda stated that the Congress party's so-called 'Satyagraha' is "nothing but an unholy attempt to save the family". He said, "This is a political campaign to save one particular family. The Congress party is holding protests against the law enforcement agencies, the Congress party leaders are raising questions over our law enforcement agencies, all this is highly inappropriate and illegal. All this should stop immediately."

Nadda claimed that it is known to everyone that crores of rupees were defrauded in the National Herald corruption case, and all those linked with this scam should appear before the law enforcement agencies and give their statements which is their primary responsibility.

According to Nadda's claims, India now runs as per the Constitution and as per law, but the Congress party holding protests against the ongoing investigation in the National Herald corruption case is unfortunate and uncalled for, which also shows that the Gandhi family considers them above the law.

"This is not going to work in our country. Law is the same for all citizens. It is the duty and responsibility of every citizen to follow the law of the land and to cooperate with the law enforcement agencies," he added.
