Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Saturday attacked the BJP-led Centre and said that the saffron party wants 'opposition-free India' and that is why Union Home Minister keeps saying that they will get over 300 seats in the next year's Lok Sabha elections.

He asked the constitutional bodies to look into the matter.

He told ANI, "I have always said that they (BJP) want an 'Opposition-free India' that's why HM Amit Shah keeps saying that more than 300 seats will come. One of their (BJP) ministers had already told how many seats they would get. They know in advance how many seats they will get. Election Commission and Court should think about this."

He also slammed the Centre for CBI notice to Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and said, "I had written that as Arvind Kejriwal is on a political rise, CBI will call him. The agencies are being misused for the past year. All political parties should keep their differences aside and speak in one voice against this injustice...This is the murder of democracy."
