Congress leader Manish Tewari on Saturday mocked Bharatiya Janata Party’s camp for newly-elected party MPs to train them about conduct in parliament, saying the new lawmakers should not learn from the saffron party’s behaviour in the last Lok Sabha.
“I hope that they would not teach what the members of BJP were doing during the last two sessions of parliament. There will be a strange atmosphere of anarchy,” Tewari said.
“In the last two sessions of the (previous) Lok Sabha, BJP MPs had only one agenda -- to disrupt Parliament and to weaken democracy,” Tewari alleged responding to a question on BJP’s Surajkund meet.
The former Information and Broadcasting Minister was here to take part in state Congress’s two-day ‘Chintan Shibir’, organised to introspect and discuss its poor performance in the Lok Sabha election.
Congress and its alliance partner Nationalist Congress Party lost all the 26 Lok Sabha seats from Gujarat this time. Party spokesperson Manish Doshi said the meet was attended by more than 350 delegates from the state. After the two-day meet, the state Congress will announce a new manifesto.
