Raided Karnataka Minister Was Tearing Papers, Says Arun Jaitley | Read

An angry Congress shouted slogans in Parliament today as its senior leaders accused the BJP-led central government of "abuse of power," questioning the timing of raids on a Karnataka minister, DK Sivakumar, that saw income tax officials visit a luxury resort in Bengaluru, where the Congress has kept 44 legislators from Gujarat to prevent defections before a crucial Rajya Sabha election. Union minister Arun Jaitley rejected the allegation stating that the raids were "on the minister and not the MLAs" and had nothing to do with the Gujarat election.
