| BJP senior leaders Arun Jaitley and Sushma Swaraj today addressed a press conference in New Delhi.
Here are the highlights:
Sushma Swaraj:
•Happy that some bills could be passed, some debates were conducted - e.g. Lokpal, Telangana
•Sad that least work was done this session
•Most disappointing was that Congress MPs were themselves creating disruptions
•This time, it felt like institutions were eroded
•The govt says CVC and CAG are hindering development. These institutions are there to keep a watch. They are doing their jobs:
•CVC and CAG are there for checks and balances. They are of utmost importance in democracy
•We will tell the people the kind of role the BJP played as the main opposition party
•It's the people who will decide what role the BJP will play in the 16th Lok Sabh
•Government has broken all records on corruption
Arun Jaitley:
•In 2009, the UPA was at its peak. But then the scams and the corruption made the UPA lose its credibility
•I see UPA-II as a 'lost opportunity'. They had a great chance. They threw it away
•UPA suffers from policy paralysis, lack of leadership
•Attitude of Congress party in Gujarat is that of a bad loser
•There was no question ever of BJP voting against Telangana, Congress was a late entrant on the Telangana bandwagon
•Cash for votes, 2G, Coalgate, CWG, VVIP Agusta deal, Adarsh - Rahul Gandhi has never commented on a single issue
•He is a very late entrant into the anti-corruptions crusader bandwagon
•Third Front is a failed idea, this country cannot afford the luxury of a failed idea
