What is the reason for this sudden arrest of leaders of small parties? This is a very interesting and interesting case. I tried to understand the matter a little more deeply. I spoke to some people who are interested in political matters, follow developments and are involved in politics. I live abroad so this all happened over the phone. Still, many people are hesitant to talk on the phone. Everyone is scared of their conversations being recorded by surveillance agencies and released on social media.
He said that suddenly the importance of these small parties has increased. He is receiving calls from everywhere throughout the day. Intelligence agency people are chasing them. Intelligence agencies now have complete information about where the leaders of these small parties go, whom they talk to on phone, with which leaders they are having tea, etc. These leaders participate in anti-government programs every day, but always in fear of arrest.
The victims say that there is every kind of pressure on them to participate in the upcoming elections. He receives phone calls regularly from all types of agencies. They are even sometimes invited for a cup of tea, conversation in a café or restaurant. During a conversation over a cup of tea, both of them are cajoled and intimidated into changing their stance. There is also a level of empathy. Then again, it’s not as if there aren’t any serious warnings. It all depends on the circumstances. If one does not agree to soften his stance, he is put into all kinds of difficulties and harassment. And those who try to ignore all pressure and remain active in the area are ultimately arrested, it is alleged.
In addition to pressure and fear tactics, there are also inducements. Small parties do not have any significant support of their own, but they are recognized by their leaders. However, the chances of these leaders winning are less. They are lured and urged to participate in the elections. They are promised all kinds of benefits and facilities. They are also promised a seat in Parliament.
