BJP terms Oppn unity against PM a flop show
New Delhi, Dec 28, 2016, DHNS:
Claiming that the bubble of Opposition unity has burst, the BJP on Tuesday said the Rahul-Mamata effort to unite the Opposition has only brought the corrupt together.
Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said only eight out of the 16 Opposition parties had come together at the press conference to speak against demonetisation, terming the effort a ‘flop show’ that only united those facing 2G and Saradha scams.
“We all saw Rahul Gandhi's flop show today. Those who claimed about Opposition unity could merely bring together eight of the 16 parties,” Prasad told reporters.
Repeating the prime minister’s derisive remarks on Rahul Gandhi, Prasad said the Congress leader is short on “maturity and gravitas” and questioned his perpetual silence on UPA scams like 2G and coal block allocations.
“Soon the front will be reduced to four. Then Rahul Gandhi will be left on his own to hurl abuses without substance. The bubble of Opposition unity has burst before it could take off,”the minister said.
With the Opposition divided over cornering the prime minister on the Sahara ‘kickbacks’, Prasad said Rahul will be isolated soon. At Tuesday’s press conference, the Congress leader raised the corruption charged, asking why the prime minister is not coming forward in facing a probe into the corruption charges against him.
