New Delhi: In a scathing attack on Congress, BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Sunday alleged that it has become "politically bankrupt" as it played the role of "obstructionist and destructive" opposition during the Monsoon Session of Parliament.

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 nuisance 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.

The Congress has been protesting on Lalit Modi and Vyapam related issues and seeking resignations of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh chief ministers.

Congress has played a role of "obstructionist" and "destructive" opposition during this Monsoon Session.

"This cannot be justified in any manner. The Congress has made Parliament, the biggest temple of democracy, a platform to display its narrow political mindset.

"It is denigrating people's mandate by blocking reform initiatives taken by the government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi," Naqvi claimed.

Accusing Congress of having become politically bankrupt, Naqvi claimed that recent comments of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi are against "political decency."

Both Sonia and Rahul had attacked Swaraj on Friday. While Congress President called Swaraj an expert at theatrics, Rahul Gandhi went a step further to ask how much money Lalit Modi had paid Swaraj's family to help him stay out of jail.

Naqvi claimed that the rival party has "not been able to digest" its humiliating defeat in the 2014 General Elections.

"Now it has become crystal clear that Congress is afraid of the growing popularity of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and his government...and wants to delay the legislations which are essential for country's economy and development," Naqvi claimed.
