Congress MP Rahul Gandhi criticized the Enforcement Directorate's arrest of former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren, dubbing agencies like ED, CBI, and IT as the 'Vipaksh Mitao Cell' (Remove Opposition Cell) of the BJP. Gandhi, leading the 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra,' alleged the BJP, mired in corruption, aims to undermine democracy. Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge also condemned the ED's actions, terming it a BJP strategy to intimidate opposition leaders. Soren, arrested after eight hours of questioning in a land scam case, resigned before the arrest. The ED claims evidence of Soren benefiting from an alleged land scam.
