BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh today took a strong exception to the manner Punjab police raided Kumar Vishvas's house in Ghaziabad in UP and said that Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann on behalf of his mentor Arvind Kejriwal was making blatant misuse of Punjab police force to unleash political vendetta against Kejriwal's rivals.
Chugh said there are reports that Punjab police has also raided Delhi leader Alka Lamba's house today.
He strongly condemned the manner a case was registered against Delhi-based BJP leader Naveen Kumar for allegedly doctoring a video clip of Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal. The video clip was posted on April 6 with a disclaimer, but regardless of it the Punjab police have filed a case on the complaint of Gurbhej Singh, who works for the legal cell of AAP.
Chugh said the first indication of AAP's political vendetta came around when the Punjab police registered a case against a BJP activist in Maharashtra for tweeting about the removal of Maharaja Ranjit Singh's picture in the chief minister's office. The complaint was lodged by an AAP Mohali district office-bearer in the cyber cell of the state police.

Chugh condmend the AAP's designs to politicise the police force and warned it against using it in other states to settle political score.
