Party spokesperson Manish Tewari was reacting to President Pranab Mukherjee urging political parties to work out a mechanism to resolve differences to ensure that the Parliament can function.
"The growing irrelevence of parliamentary and legislative institutions is subversive of the Indian democratic experiment. That day is not too far when people would seriously question representative democracy as it is constituted. By making legislative institutions dysfunctional, politicians are writing their own obituaries prematurely," Tewari told PTI.
His remarks came close on the heels of the conclusion of the Monsoon Session of Parliament, which witnessed two-third of its proceedings being washed out following disruption by the BJP over the coal block allocation issue.
The BJP demanded resignation of the Prime Minister in the wake of the CAG report, which has spoken of undue benefit to private players to the tune of Rs 1.86 lakh crore.
