Priyanka Gandhi criticized the central government and said that by bringing such a bill, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government is trying to throw dust in the eyes of the people. He told reporters in the Parliament complex, ‘This is a completely oppressive step. It is against everything and presenting it as an anti -corruption step is like throwing dust in people’s eyes. Since it is basically allowed the government to do so, then you do not even need to be convicted.

The Congress General Secretary said, “Tomorrow you can register a case against a Chief Minister and arrest him for 30 days without conviction and then he will no longer be the Chief Minister.” Priyanka Gandhi said that this is in front of everyone.
