Bhubaneswar- Minister of State for Home G. Kishan Reddy has criticized the
Congress party on the issue of violation of human rights and misuse of sedition
law. Replying to a question in the Lower House by Congress MP Anumula
Revath Reddy on the details of the number of cases registered under the offence
of sedition across the country during the last 10 years the minister declared the
figures prepared by the National Crime Bureau and said that the Modi
government has nothing to hide.
Not satisfied with the answer when Congress MPs Anumula Revath Reddy and
former minister Manish Tiwari pointed out the Disha Ravi case and farmers
issue, G Kishan Reddy attacked the Congress reminding it of the draconian
TADA and MISA Act alleging how innocent people including journalists and
senior political leaders like J P Narayan, former Prime Minister of India Atal
Behari Vajpayi and former Deputy PM L K Advani were targeted.
