UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday hit back at main opposition party BJP for disrupting Parliament proceedings and preventing crucial legislations from being passed at the UPA-II's report card release on the occasion of the 4th anniversary of the coalition government at the Centre.
'I cannot hide my deep sense of disappointment at the way that Parliament has been prevented from functioning and fulfilling both its constitutional role and its democratic obligations. We deeply regret that in spite of our government's repeated offers for debate and discussion on all issues, the principal Opposition Party has thwarted the work and functioning of Parliament. We are disappointed that we have not been able to get crucial legislation enacted entirely because of this obstructionist approach' said Sonia Gandhi. 'We still have time to fulfill our duties to our people. I take this opportunity to make a fervent plea to the NDA and other Opposition Parties. Let us come together and collectively ensure the passage of the food security, land acquisition bills and other important bills. These are not partisan issues. It is not a question of the government versus the opposition. These bills affect the lives and livelihoods of millions whom we are committed to represent and benefit' added the Congress President.
