Rahul criticized the administration for forbidding him to sit at Vijay Chowk when staging the dharna earlier today.  “They (Police) are not allowing us to sit at Vijay Chowk. This is the reality of India that it is a Police state, it is the truth...Modiji (PM Modi) is a 'raja' (king),” he was quoted as telling ANI.
