Mumbai: Those who oppose Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) racist and anti-democratic policies are considered as traitors and the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) raids are conducted on them. But why no ED raids are conducted on All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (MIM) and Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi (VBA) front, asked former MP and former Mumbai Regional Congress Committee (MRCC) president Eknath Gaikwad.
He further alleged that the BJP benefits from MIM and VBA. They eat into the votes of Congress and elect the BJP and BJP spreads hatred and casteism, further remarked Gaikwad He said this while inaugurating the office of Congress leader Shivkumar Lad at Wadala, Ward No. 201 on Sunday on the occasion of Krantijyoti Savitribai Phule’s birth anniversary.

Eknath Gaikwad sharply criticized the political use of ED and CBI by the BJP. “Narendra Modi says that he became the Prime Minister only because of the constitution, he always mentions Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar’s name but works against the constitution. No party, no leader is seen fighting against BJP’s casteism today. Only Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is fighting alone. So stand by Rahul Gandhi. Show to the world that the only party that can take everyone along is the Congress, “ he further appealed.
Speaking on the occasion Shivkumar Lad said, “Through this public relation office at Wadala, the problems of the citizens of this area will be solved with priority”. In this office, party ministers and office bearers will meet the people personally. Therefore, the problems in the ward will be solved immediately. Similar offices will be set up in every ward in Mumbai to reach out to the public. Emphasis is being laid on strengthening the party organization, said Shivkumar Lad.
