The Income Tax department has issued recovery notices totaling over Rs 1800 crore to the Congress Party, leading to nationwide protests by the party against what they term as 'tax terrorism'. Congress leaders have criticized the notices as an attempt to financially choke the party ahead of elections. The BJP has dismissed the accusations, labeling the protests as a display of opposition party's arrogance. The ongoing controversy has escalated with Congress receiving multiple demand notices, with potential recoverable amounts exceeding Rs 2500 crore. Various Congress leaders have expressed outrage, alleging political targeting and misuse of power by the government.
