BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi recently claimed that a massive drug seizure worth Rs 5,600 crores occurred in Delhi, dwarfing the Rs 768 crores seized during the UPA government's tenure from 2006-2013. He also stated that the BJP government seized Rs 22,000 crores worth of drugs between 2014-2022. Trivedi linked Tushar Goyal, the alleged kingpin of the drug syndicate, to the Indian Youth Congress RTI Cell, raising questions about the Congress party's connections with Goyal. Specifically, Trivedi inquired about the nature of the Congress party's relationship with Goyal, potential financial ties to the party's elections, and possible arrangements between party leaders and drug peddlers. BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi said, "Yesterday in Delhi, drugs worth Rs 5,600 crores were seized. This quantity is important as during the UPA government (2006-2013) only drugs worth Rs 768 crores were seized across India...The BJP government from 2014-2022 has seized drugs worth Rs 22,000 crore. The main accused and kingpin in the drug syndicate, Tushar Goyal is the chief of Indian Youth Congress RTI Cell...What relations does the Congress party have with him (Tushar Goyal)?... Was this money being used in elections by the Congress party?... Does some leaders of the Congress have any arrangements with the drug peddlers?... Congress especially the Hooda family should reply what is your connection with Tushar Goyal?..."
