New Delhi: Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Friday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's dig at the Congress disrupting Parliament. Responding to the criticism, Sonia Gandhi was quoted as saying, "Let him say what he wants".
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday took at a dig at the Congress disrupting Parliament and said that "democracy cannot function at the whims and fancies of anyone".
Modi also said the poor are not being able to get their rights as legislations to benefit them are stuck due to disruptions in Parliament. "It is not only goods and services tax bill but many pro-poor steps are stuck in Parliament."
"You must have seen that these days this(disruptions) is being seen more. Meri Marji (I will do what I desire). I will do whatever comes to my mind. Does the country run like this? Democracy does not function with 'Mantantra'. The country does not run on its basis. Whatever you may think but the system does not run like this," Modi said.
The National Herald issue had cast its shadow over Parliament for the last couple of days with Congress members continuously creating uproar in both Houses and blocking the passage of bills.
