The Story in Brief
Cockroach Janta Party co-convenor Saurav Das has alleged that Puducherry Police visited his family home on Wednesday and questioned his relatives. In a post on X, Das called the action harassment and claimed it was ordered by the BJP government at the Union government's behest. He asked who authorised the visit and whether it was part of legal procedure.
Das said the goal was to intimidate him into silence but asserted that 'it will not work.' He accused the police of acting like 'goondas' and said the incident strengthened his resolve. The police have not yet responded to the allegations. Das also linked the visit to Union home minister Amit Shah's recent trip to Puducherry two days earlier.
The Indian Opinion
Both sides in this spat need more proof. Saurav Das is quick to blame the BJP and Union government without naming who ordered the visit or what law was cited. The police have not responded yet, which leaves the public with only one version. If the questioning was part of a legitimate inquiry, the police should release a statement immediately. If it was harassment, Das should produce evidence beyond his X post. The test is simple: will the police file a formal report or remain silent?
