New Delhi: Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday criticized the registration of a case by Noida police against party MP Shashi Tharoor and some journalists. "It is dangerous to threaten public representatives and journalists on behalf of the BJP government," he said.

किसान आंदोलन कवर कर रहे पत्रकारों को गिरफ्तार किया जा रहा है, उनपर मुकदमें किए जा रहे हैं। कई जगहों पर इंटरनेट बंद कर दिया है। भाजपा सरकार किसानों की आवाज को कुचलना चाहती है लेकिन वे भूल गए हैं कि जितना दबाओगे उससे ज्यादा आवाजें आपके अत्याचार के खिलाफ उठेंगी। #ReleaseMandeepPunia

A case was also registered on other charges. Now the same in-charge of Uttar Pradesh of the Congress, Priyanka Gandhi has made a tweet.

..भाजपा सरकार ने वरिष्ठ पत्रकारों व जन प्रतिनिधियों को धमकाने के लिए FIR करके लोकतंत्र की मर्यादा को तार-तार किया है।2/2 @ShashiTharoor @sardesairajdeep @MrinalPande1 @zafaragha70 @vinodjose @anantnath @thecaravanindia

In her tweet, Priyanka Gandhi writes, 'Journalists covering the Kisan agitation are being arrested, they are being prosecuted. The Internet has stopped in many places. The BJP government wants to crush the voice of the farmers, but they have forgotten that more voices will rise against your atrocities than you will suppress. Has lodged the dignity of democracy by filing an FIR.'
