At the same time, the party sought to dismiss the government's allegation that Congress was blocking the development agenda of the nation saying, "we are for the passage of GST if our amendments, which are in national interest are accepted."
Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad, while briefing the reporters after Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting, charged the Modi dispensation of practising "politics of confrontation" with the Opposition.
"There is always a word about holding talks with Pakistan at the Foreign Secretary or at the NSA level but they cannot talk across the table with the Opposition. We condemn this objectionable behaviour," Azad said, adding that Parliamentary Affairs M Venkaiah Naidu "did talk to me but on telephone".
He insisted "convening of special session of Parliament will serve no purpose unless the government takes action against Sushma Swaraj and BJP Chief Ministers."
