Congress leader K.C. Venugopal, MP, has said that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government at the Centre is misusing government agencies such as the Election Commission, Enforcement Directorate, and the Central Bureau of Investigation for election propaganda.
Inaugurating a two-day Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) leadership meeting at Sulthan Bathery in Wayanad on Tuesday, Mr. Venugopal said some of the national media, Election Commission, and a section of the judiciary had lost their impartial attitude under the BJP rule. “Unity could not be ensured among Opposition parties owing to interventions by Central agencies,” he said.
The media should act as the fourth pillar in a democratic set-up, but some of the national media were being used as agencies to execute the BJP’s secret agenda, he alleged.
