During the Zero Hour in the Rajya Sabha, Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh raised the issue alleging that Central agencies are targeting only Opposition leaders while ED's conviction rate in the last years is just O.5 percent.<br />''<br />''Leader of the House and Union Minister Piyush Goyal objected to his comments saying people make many claims on social media which are not substantiated by facts. He added that no law gives immunity to elected representatives and political leaders should maintain high standards.
