Parliament can’t be run like RSS shakha: Rahul

Modi government cannot brush aside opposition and impose any measure without proper discussion in Parliament, Rahul Gandhi on Friday said after Prime Minister Narendra Modi accused Congress of holding back India’s development march by stalling Parliament.

Criticising BJP for accusing Congress of blocking GST Bill, he said, “Parliament should function, but it needs discussion. It is not like RSS shakha. India is a country with diversity and not a closed system where decisions can be imposed.”  “The BJP-led government must realise that Parliament is a forum for discussion and nothing can be imposed without allowing <g data-gr-id="11">opposition</g> to express its voice and views,” he said.
