Parliamentary Affairs Minister Venkaiah Naidu criticised the Congress party over allegations of snooping against their vice-president Rahul Gandhi and said it is not fair on the part the party and its allies to make an issue out of a non-issue.
"During your regime, people use to say that there used to be surveillance. Lots of such complaints were received at that time. People used to speak about it inside Parliament also. That being the case, it is not fair on the part of Congress party and its allies to make an issue out of a non-issue," said Naidu.
"The same thing has happened to me when I was in opposition two times they (police) came and gave that questionnaire to me and asked me to sign that also. When I became a minister they also made some inquiry," he added.
Delhi Police personnel visited Rahul Gandhi's residence last week and also sought details about his height and colour of eyes and hair.
A team, led by Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police Jatin Narwal, visited Gandhi's Tughlak Lane residence to enquire about the sequence of events.
The team also checked the pictures of the policemen who had visited Rahul's residence a couple of days ago and enquired about the colour of Congress leader's eyes and hairs.
The Delhi Police on Saturday said it was a routine security enquiry and that there was no malafide intention behind it.
