The BJP's Haryana unit has rubbished Swaraj India leader Yogendra Yadav's charge that the Income Tax raid conducted at his sisters' hospital in Rewari was meant to intimidate him.
"Yadav's charge is baseless, there is no truth in the allegations made by him," Haryana BJP vice president Rajiv Jain said.
Yadav had alleged that the raid was conducted to "intimidate" and "silence" him as he had launched an agitation for fair crop price for farmers and against liquor shops in that city in Haryana.
Asked to comment on Yadav's charge, Jain said, "Where is the question of intimidating anyone? If the Income Tax Department has found anything against anyone, let it do its job and the truth will come out."
