Congress disrupting Parliament over 'silly issues': Gowda

Union Law Minister D.V. Sadananda Gowda on Friday said the Congress party was only interested in stalling the proceedings of the Parliament over 'silly issues'.

"The Congress people don't want to have a proper debate on the floor of the House. Taking the silly issues, they just want to stall the proceedings of the Parliament," said Gowda.

"I think in the larger interest of the country, whenever they want to discuss certain things, whenever they want to get answers from the ruling party, it is their duty to participate in the debate instead of stalling the proceedings of the house," he added.

Facing repeated adjournments for four consecutive days of the Monsoon Session, both Houses of the Parliament have been adjourned till Monday.

The Monsoon Session of the Parliament has so far been plagued by chaos over the Vyapam scam and Lalit Modi controversy, with an unrelenting opposition leading to noisy scenes and repeated adjournments.
