On Tuesday, the Congress leader hit out at central agencies like the Enforcement Directorate, Central Bureau of Investigation, and Income Tax among others, saying that balance between liberty and accountability is most important for constitutional governance.
"The oppressive investigation regimes will have to be dismantled by a govt committed to liberty without free run to offenders. Balance between liberty and accountability most important for constitutional governance," he posted on X.
