The Central Bureau of Investigation recently raided a mall in Gurugram that is, reportedly, owned by the Rashtriya Janata Dal leader and deputy chief minister of Bihar, Tejashwi Yadav.
The raid is in connection with the land-for-job scam in Bihar ” it has been alleged that job aspirants either sold or gifted their land in Patna to the kin of the RJD chief, Lalu Prasad. The timing of the raid ” it was conducted on the eve of the trust vote in Bihar ” has raised several pertinent questions.
There have been accusations by most of the Opposition parties that the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government at the Centre is misusing Central investigative agencies for political vendetta.
In the end, such tactics only erode the trust of the people and destroy our institutions.
