‘Congress has no job other than opposing government’

BJP State unit president questions contribution of Congress veteran Mallikarjun Kharge to development of Kalaburagi

  Holding Congress responsible for the recent disruptions of proceedings in Parliament, president of BJP’s State unit Nalin Kumar Kateel said the party does not have any job other than opposing and criticising the government. “The Union government was ready to discuss all the issues that the Opposition raised in Parliament. But, Congress was not ready. It went on to disrupt the proceedings despite repeated appeals from Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Congress has no job other than opposing the government, irrespective of the correctness of the decision. It opposed implementation of CAA and NRC, abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution, ban on triple talaq. It did not oppose Mr. Modi for giving more ministerial berths in his Cabinet to people from scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, backward classes and women as it feared the wrath of these oppressed communities. Congress is not working as a real opposition party,” Mr. Kateel said at a media conference in Kalaburagi on August 21.
