Reacting to the Enforcement Directorate’s revelations of the PFI’s role in the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act protests, BJP Rajya Sabha MP GVL Narasimha Rao branded PFI as ‘Pakistan Front of India’. Claiming that the organization had spent Rs.130 crore on the anti-CAA protests, he recalled how Pakistan had sponsored stone-pelting in Jammu and Kashmir. Moreover, he contended that Pakistan was desperate after the abrogation of Article 370 and therefore, engineering “violent protests” to destabilise the country. Thereafter, he called upon Indians to accept this reality.
