‘India A Police State, Modi A King’, Says Rahul Gandhi, Detained Amid Protests.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was detained by the Delhi Police at  Vijay Chowk on Tuesday amid protests against the ED’s summoning of Sonia Gandhi in an alleged money laundering case.

Hitting out at the central government for “dictatorship”, Rahul alleged that they were not being allowed to hold discussions inside Parliament and during protests, the leaders were arrested.

“India is a police state, Modi is a king,” Rahul added while speaking to the media.

Gandhi, accompanied by his security personnel, was whisked away in a police van.

Seventeen other Congress MPs besides Gandhi were detained by Delhi Police, as per the report.

Other detained leaders include Mallikarjun Kharge, Ranjeet Ranjan, KC Venugopal, Manickam Tagore, Imran Pratapgarhi, and K Suresh.

The Delhi Police were trying to convince Gandhi to leave the place as Section 144 was imposed due to the ongoing session of Parliament.

Earlier, youth Congress leaders and workers staged a protest at the AICC headquarters. They came out of the premises and indulged in commotion with the police and CAPF personnel.

Congress MPs led by Gandhi staged a protest march from Parliament to Rashtrapati Bhavan, reads the report.

Sonia Gandhi reached the ED office in New Delhi on Tuesday for a second round of questioning in the National Herald money laundering case. She was accompanied by Priyanka and Rahul Gandhi.

Previously, on July 21, the ED questioned Sonia for two hours  and ended the session for the day on her request as she is recovering from Covid, officials said.
