SMK the turn coat, is a spent force for congress & Jumla party as well. He cant do any damage to Congis. Just to have another feather in the cap of Feku, this raid is conducted. There r Sharks in Feku's own party who r free like Adani, Sushil Modi, Vijaivarghia, Ajay Devgun, Ashok Pandit etc. Nothing will happen to them.
