It is known that Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was on Sunday arrested by the CBI in connection with the Delhi excise policy case. The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the same.

In a series of tweets, KT Rama Rao asked how many Enforcement Directorate, Income Tax Department, and CBI raids on BJP leaders or their kith and kin have been carried out in the last 8 years. He questioned if BJP leaders are Satya Harischandra's cousin brothers.

The Telangana IT Minister further said, "The country is watching how the PM’s cronies are protected despite serious allegations and how Opposition leaders are hounded. Modi’s modus operandi is clear. Target opposition parties by all means at his disposal. Either split the parties or poach their MLAs and dislodge the elected governments."

KTR described CBI, ED and the IT department as Modi's allies that have been deployed to harass and launch a smear campaign.
