The Congress is set to protest around Raj Bhawans in all states on Thurday. The grand old party has alleged the misuse of state machineries after the police stormed the Congress headquarters in Delhi on Wednesday.
The Congress alleged that Delhi Police personnel forcibly entered its headquarters and beat up party workers and leaders, on a day the party staged vociferous protests against the questioning of Rahul Gandhi by the Enforcement Directorate for the third consecutive day.
Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala called the Delhi Police's action 'absolute goondaism' at the instance of 'the Modi government'. He also said that the 'goondaism of Delhi Police and Modi government has reached its zenith.
The party demanded that an FIR for "criminal trespass" be registered, the erring police personnel be suspended and disciplinary action initiated against them.
Surjewala said the party's state units would gherao Raj Bhawans across the country Thursday morning against the police action.
