Congress will not allow the Land Acquisition Bill to pass in Parliament, Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha, Ghulam Nabi Azad said.
"We will not allow the bill to pass in Parliament," Azad told reporters here today.
"Today there is worst situation for farmers. We had passed a law in 2013 for the benefit of farmers. Now they had brought the bill and PM is saying that it is not to benefit the Ambanis but I tell him it will benefit Adani," he said.
