NEW DELHI
\nFourteen opposition parties of India have approached the country\u2019s top court over the misuse of central investigating agencies by the BJP-led Indian government. The Indian Supreme Court will hear the case on April 5.
\nAccording to Kashmir Media Service, the fourteen political parties moved the SC, today, against the indiscriminate use of central agencies like the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) against opposition leaders.
\nThe opposition parties say that agencies like the CBI and ED have been targeting only opponents of the BJP. They have also said cases against leaders are frequently dropped or buried once they join the BJP.
\n\u201cNinety-five per cent of cases are against opposition leaders. We are asking for pre-arrest guidelines and post-arrest guidelines,\u201d Singhvi said.
\nThe parties, which have filed the case in the Supreme Court include the Congress, Trinamool Congress, Aam Aadmi Party, Janata Dal-United, Bharat Rashtra Samithi, Rashtriya Janata Dal, Samajwadi Party, Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction), National Conference, Nationalist Congress Party, the Left and the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
