Asserting that BJP does not interfere in the functioning of constitutional bodies like the CBI and the ED, Union Minister Jitendra Singh Saturday claimed that the entire frontline leadership of the Congress are out on bail in various cases and could be behind the bars anytime.
He was responding to a question about Robert Vadra, Congress President Rahul Gandhi's brother-in-law, being questioned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for the third consecutive day in connection with a probe into allegations of money laundering to purchase assets abroad.
"I think the nation is watching this. May be they have lost the plot somewhere. It has become the norm for them (Congress) because the entire frontline leadership of the party are facing cases and are out on bail. They could be behind the bars anytime," Singh, the Minister of State in the Prime Minister's office, told reporters here.
He said it is for the nation to decide whether they wish to offer any kind of room or political space to a party like this.
About whether the BJP is trying to divert people's attention from some issues confronting the NDA government, he said, "I do not think we have to exercise any pressure tactics to defeat the futile 'gathbandhan, mahagathbandan or mahamilawat' as Prime Minister Narendra Modi put it in the Lok Sabha."
