New Delhi: Senior lawyer and Congress MP Abhishek Singhvi on Wednesday night found fault with the three Bills scheduled to be introduced in Lok Sabha that proposes removal of Prime Minister, Chief Minister and Ministers if they are in custody for 30 days, calling it the "best way to destabilise" the Opposition.
He posted on 'X' soon after the Bills were circulated among MPs, "what a vicious circle! No guidelines for arrest followed! Arrests of opposition leaders (are) rampant and disproportionate…”
“(The) best way to destabilise opposition is to unleash biased central agencies to arrest Opposition CMs and despite being unable to defeat them electorally, remove them by arbitrary arrests!! And no ruling party incumbent CM ever touched!!” he added.
Congress Lok Sabha Deputy Leader Gaurav Gogoi said the bills were "nothing but a desperate attempt to divert the attention" of the public away from the "blistering" Vote Adhikar Yatra of Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi.
"First, the CSDS-BJP IT cell drama and now these bills. Clearly, the winds of change are blowing in Bihar," Gogoi posted on 'X'.
