BJP raises questions over Govt notices to Kejriwal, Ramdev

Says that the best people to explain the entire situation is the govt

PTI | September 2, 2011



BJP today raised questions over the notices sent to civil society activist Arvind Kejriwal and Yoga guru Ramdev, saying the Government should come clear on whether they were intentional or mere coincidental.

"It is very amusing and rather very incidental that all these people who have raised their voice against the Government end up landing up with notices," said senior BJP leader Rajiv Pratap Rudy.

Talking to reporters outside Parliament, Rudy said, "One does not know whether it is with an intent or a design or is just a matter of a course. It does raise a sense of suspicion in the minds of the people - whether it is the intent of the Government or is simply a procedure which is happening and now it is taking its own course."

He said the "best people to explain the entire situation is the Government.

"Another senior BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad charged the UPA of playing vendetta politics. Without getting into details of the notice sent by the Government to Kejriwal, he said the people of the country will not accept this.
