I-t Survey Bbc

Holding the Central government responsible for the nearly 60 hours long I-T survey, JD(U) leader Sunil Singh said this operation was a part of vindictive politics.

AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi on Wednesday attacked the central government over the I-T department's survey operation at BBC offices.

Searches at the BBC's offices in Delhi and Mumbai continued all night, spilling over to the second day as Income Tax officials investigated alleged tax evasion

"The survey by the I-T department is in continuation of a trend of using government agencies to intimidate and harass press organisations that are critical of government policies or the ruling establishment," the Guild said in a statement here.
