The BJP resorted to "bad politics of vote polarisation and using the Enforcement Directorate and other agencies for browbeating opponents to trigger defections," Navjot Sidhu said.
Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu on Sunday alleged that the BJP is using central agencies to arm-twist and browbeat political opponents, and trigger defections.
Addressing a rally organised by local MLA Balwinder Singh Dhaliwal, Mr Sidhu said rival political leaders are being asked to either join the BJP or be put behind bars.
The BJP resorted to "bad politics of vote polarisation and using the Enforcement Directorate and other agencies for browbeating opponents to trigger defections," he said.
Taking a dig at the BJP for opening its office in Jalandhar, Mr Sidhu said a party which was not seen in the state for five years has now opened its office just to "arm-twist opponents".
