All those against the BJP are dubbed as threat to peace and against the national interess and detained,” Bhalla said. “This is a replica of a sick thinking which goes against the glorious traditions and fundamental provisions of our Constitution,” he said, apparently referring to the crackdown on opposition political parties.
