The Congress has leveled serious allegations against the BJP-led Union government, accusing it of crafting legislation to destabilize opposition parties by arresting their chief ministers through allegedly biased central agencies. This stems from reports of proposed bills targeting opposition figures post-arrest.
According to Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi, the ruling party is introducing a law aimed at removing opposition chief ministers without electoral defeat. These developments have led Singhvi to criticize the lack of arrest guidelines and the perceived targeting of opposition leaders.
As Home Minister Amit Shah prepares to present three contentious bills in Parliament, the Congress accuses the government of diverting attention from Rahul Gandhi's campaign efforts in Bihar. This political maneuvering highlights the contentious atmosphere as legislation such as the Government of Union Territories (Amendment) Bill 2025 surfaces.
