Opposition on Thursday sought to puncture the economic growth story, charging the government with "failure" to check price spiral and demanded a Parliamentary probe into a "scam" in essential commodities like wheat, rice, pulses and sugar.
Launching a scathing attack in both the houses of Parliament on the issue of price rise, opposition BJP and the Left alleged that the UPA was indulging in blame game instead of controlling runaway inflation, particularly of food items.
After stalling proceedings for two days on the issue, the Opposition mounted a fresh offensive on the government through a structured debates, simultaneously in both houses which skipped the question hour.
The government came under attack on a day when the pre-Budget Economic Survey painted a rosy picture of the economy projecting a growth of 7.2 per cent for the current financial year and 8.75 per cent in the next fiscal.
