India's primary financial crime agency has come under scrutiny for its investigations targeting well over a hundred opposition politicians in the past decade, amidst allegations of it being used as a political tool by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his party. This has drawn criticism from various quarters, accusing the agency of acting as a weapon against political adversaries. The situation has escalated with the tax authorities freezing accounts and seizing funds of India's main opposition party, severely impacting their campaign efforts ahead of the world's largest election. Notably, out of the nearly 150 politicians investigated by the agency, only four belong to the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, highlighting concerns over the impartiality of these actions.
