It appears that selective raids are increasingly being carried out on non BJP politicians and their relatives at critical junctures before a political event or to discredit someone. The BJP says that the agencies are just doing their job as there is too much corruption and if they are innocent, they can prove it in court! The opposition maintains this is all politically motivated or a witch hunt and points out that hardly anyone from the BJP or any of those that have jumped ship and joined them are targeted! Therefore going back years in time to now apply draconian laws like UAPA, PMLA etc which permits the procedures to be the punishment, court convictions being dismally low, an atmosphere of fear prevails. Justice is seen to be coloured when 11 convicts of 2002 horrible communal riots being rapists and murderers of the worst kind convicted for life, are given remission seen being garlanded and given sweets like heros reportedly by the VHP! The Supreme Court has accepted a PIL and hopefully justice will prevail in all cases!
