There's no personal vendetta: BJP MLA

Itanagar: The Arunachal unit of BJP on Wednesday dismissed the Congress' allegations of political vendetta in the National Herald case, asserting that the ongoing legal action is based on prima facie evidence and due judicial process, reports Joken Ete.

Addressing a press conference here, Aalo West MLA and spokesperson Topin Ete said the case was initiated during the tenure of the Cong-led UPA govt following a complaint filed by BJP leader Subramanian Swamy in 2012 and has since followed the legal course. "There is no personal vendetta. The case has moved forward purely on the basis of facts and evidence," Ete said.

The Arunachal Pradesh Congress Committee held a protest at the Rajiv Gandhi Bhavan here on Wednesday.
