"The situation is that Parliament has been hijacked literally. Important issues on which debate should be held, like Land Acquisition Bill, are pending because there is no discussion in the house," National general secretary of Rashtriya Lok Dal Jayant Chaudhary told reporters here.
He said that opposition's work was to put forth its view and let the government do its job.
"Now the politics is of stalemate... If it becomes the prime objective of the opposition, then it will be difficult," he said.
He said that if opposition wants a discussion on the issue of FDI, it should go forward.
"But the policy decision government has taken...If you think that there should be vote on every policy decision and accordingly it is reversed then it is not possible," Chaudhary said.
"On the FDI issue, I will say that let us watch what situation emerges. State governments have been given free hand. Provisions have been made in the policy for local industry and how new job opportunities are created," he said.
