National Herald case: Unprecedented police action on Congress protesters, says Sachin Pilot

New Delhi: Congress leader Sachin Pilot, who was held by police during a mega protest against Rahul Gandhi's interrogation by the Enforcement Directorate, said the force used against the Congress workers in the last three days has never been witnessed before.

Congress leaders have alleged that the police and the security forces entered the party headquarters in Delhi and detained some party workers.

Sachin Pilot was detained while he was several hundred yards away from the headquarters premises while on his way in.

"They shoved us into the bus and I don't know what next they plan to do with us. This sort of detainment has never happened before. This behaviour in a civil society is just not done," Pilot was quoted as saying by NDTV.

He said the police did not give any reason for their action.

Pilot said the unexplained action only indicates that the police and the Centre have made up their mind that no opposition will be allowed in the country.
