Priyanka Chaturvedi criticizes Amit Shah in Rajya Sabha
Priyanka Chaturvedi, a leader of the Shiv Sena party, criticized India's Home Minister Amit Shah during a debate in the Rajya Sabha. Chaturvedi accused Shah of misusing central agencies to target opposition-run states. The discussion turned heated when Saket Gokhale, another opposition member, raised concerns about expanding the authority of the Border Security Force (BSF). Gokhale argued that this expansion is a threat to federalism. In response, Amit Shah defended the actions of the home ministry. He stated that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) does not fall under the home ministry's control. Shah maintained that his ministry is acting within legal bounds. This exchange highlights ongoing tensions between the government and opposition parties regarding the use of power and agency oversight.
