Defending the Gandhi family on the Enforcement Directorate’s notices in the National Herald case, Congress MP Vivek Tankha on Sunday accused the Modi government of intentionally troubling the opposition.
Castigating the BJP government, Tankha said Congress President Sonia Gandhi and her son and MP Rahul Gandhi were falsely implicated and the charges of money laundering hurled at them were false.
He said that the National Herald was not started for profit but was a part of the freedom movement. “There is no money laundering in this entire case as not a single penny has been transacted."
Only a business restructure was done and equity was floated in order to keep the historic newspaper alive, he said.
