New Delhi: Reaffirming his government’s commitment to the welfare of the poor and deprived sections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the Congress is “rattled” by the rapid development taking place.
He asserted that the Opposition party’s bid to stall initiatives would not be allowed. MoS for parliamentary affairs Rajiv Pratap Rudy said the PM recalled his days as a political worker during the JP Movement when Emergency was imposed in an attempt to concentrate power with one family, and claimed the current situation was akin to that.
Remembering the days of Emergency, the PM said the Congress had displayed the same “anti-democracy trait” in Parliament in the last 15 days as it did then out of fear of losing power.
The NDA parliamentary party also passed a resolution against the “deliberate and forcible” disruption of the Monsoon Session by the Congress and called upon the people to see through the “patently undemocratic” behaviour of the Congress.
