Smriti Irani said the Congress is rallying the opposition parties as it is unable to win elections on its own.
As the leaders of 14 opposition parties met in Patna on Friday to chalk out a strategy for next year's Lok Sabha polls, top BJP leaders played down the meeting, with Home Minister Amit Shah calling it a mere "photo opportunity".
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief J P Nadda said the leaders who attended the meet were those who were jailed by the Congress during Emergency, while Union minister Smriti Irani said the Congress is rallying opposition parties as it is unable to win elections on its own.
Addressing a rally in Jammu, Mr Shah said opposition unity is "nearly impossible".
He also slammed former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi, saying he has the habit of criticising everything.
