Coal scam: Cong, BJP in war of words over CAG report - NewsX

  • 5 years ago
With Parliament observing a holiday, the BJP and the Congress were locked in a war of words over the CAG report on coal block allocations with Kapil Sibal charging the Opposition with "killing democracy" in its desperation to come to power. The BJP hit back saying the Union minister belonged to a party which had imposed emergency in 1975. During the sparring, the Opposition stuck to its demand for cancellation of all the 142 blocks while the ruling party rejected it saying that it would spell disaster for the country's economy and common man. Holding that the BJP was not bothered about the country's development and only desperate to come to power, Sibal alleged that the "same ideology" that led to assassination of Mahatma Gandhi is now up to "killing democracy".
