‘Cong has become politically bankrupt, destructive oppn’

Hitting out at Rahul Gandhi he said, the Congress vice-president is "miles away from ground realities" and that Congress has made Parliament, a "platform" to display its "narrow political mindset". The Union Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs said while politics of Parliament and road is for people's welfare, the "brand new leader" of the grand old party is "neither able to understand realities of the roads nor importance of Parliament."  "Political journey from nonsense to <g data-gr-id="17">nuisance</g> of Rahul Baba, the brand new leader of the grand old party, is miles away from ground realities," Naqvi alleged.

The minister said that disruption in Parliament on genuine issues is an acceptable part of democracy, but it must be issue-based, logical and in the interest of people of the country. "But what we have seen from day one of the current Monsoon Session of Parliament, which started on July 21, is disruption on non-issues and without any logic.

"It is against democratic principles. Proceedings in both the Houses have been disrupted by the Congress, the main Opposition party, on baseless issues while the government was always ready for debate on all the issues and to resolve them," Naqvi claimed in his blog post.
