Kolkata/IBNS: Linking the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) probe into Sushant Singh Rajput's death, several Twitterati have slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after saffron party leader Pamela Goswami was arrested for carrying cocaine on Friday.

Several Twitterati asked whether Goswami would be probed in the same manner several Bollywood personalities were investigated over the drug use angle related to Rajput's suicide last year.

Congress spokesperson Shama Mohamed tweeted, "The BJP govt unleashed the NCB after Rhea Chakraborty for allegedly smoking a small quantity of marijuana. But now BJP leader Pamela Goswami has been caught with nearly 100 grams of #cocaine. The entire country is waiting for NCB to file a case against her!"
