Coming down hard on Jung, the party alleged that he was bringing "disrepute" to the Constitutional office by allowing BJP leaders to "dictate" terms to him with an aim to help the saffron party politically.
"Why has the Lt Governor decided to call all political parties to explore formation of a government eight months after imposition of President's Rule? He is acting at the behest of BJP which is unacceptable," Delhi Congress chief spokesperson Mukesh Sharma said.
"Why cannot the BJP issue a statement saying it does not want to form government? The ruling party at the Centre was scared of facing the polls and that is why it is adopting various tactics through the LG to delay the polls," he said.
The Congress also demanded immediate dissolution of the assembly to pave way for holding of fresh polls in the city which is under President's Rule since February.
