Jaitley cited many examples, one of
the most popular ones being the way
Mulayam Singh Yadav did a flip-flop on
his choice of President during the recent
Presidential race. He also pointed out
the way the Central Bureau of Investigation,
popularly known as the CBI, played
to the tunes of the ruling party.
Jaitley said that the opposition would
try to join hands with as many political
parties as possible to ensure that the
corrupt government paid a price for its
political shenanigans.
Meanwhile, the war between the two
parties has escalated with the BJP refusing
to give up its demand for Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh's resignation
and Congress chief Sonia Gandhi charging
the BJP with blackmail.
With Congress and BJP leaders taking
on each other, the BJP's adamant refusal
to let parliament function until Manmohan
Singh bowed out crippled both
houses for the sixth straight day.
A day after the BJP accused the Congress
of taking kickbacks by giving away
coal blocks to private parties, Gandhi
jumped into the fray and asked her MPs
to aggressively fight the "intemperate
Congress bashing".
"The proper forum for (a debate) is an
active and involved parliament, not one
that is held to ransom by blackmail,
which has become the bread and butter
of the BJP, much to the concern of some
of its allies," she said at a meeting of her
MPs.
