Cong's 'arrogance' shows something is fishy: Naqvi

Union minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi alleged on Sunday that the Congress party is in "chaos" due to its "garbage of corruption" and its leadership's "arrogance" shows something is fishy. "These bold reforms have ensured that India has converted a disaster into an opportunity," he said.

Union minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi alleged on Sunday that the Congress party is in "chaos" due to its "garbage of corruption" and its leadership's "arrogance" shows something is fishy. "The garbage of corruption under the dynasty's carpet is crystal clear. This has caused chaos in the Congress. Arrogance of these merchants of corruption proves that there is something fishy," he told reporters.

In a swipe at the opposition party, Naqvi said its leadership can not differentiate between solar plant and solar park or "pyaz and pizza". The Congress leadership is looking for a political opportunity in the coronavirus pandemic and the China issue, he said, accusing it of giving ignorant comments on the economy, security and reforms.

The BJP and the Congress have been locked in a war of words over the Modi government's handling of the Covid-19 crisis and the border row with China. Hailing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, Naqvi said India is the only democratic country in the world which provided free food to 81 crore people, free gas cylinders to 8 crore families and 'Garib Kalyan' package worth Rs 1.70 lakh crore to the poor.

"These steps instilled a sense of development with trust among people of the country," Naqvi said. The Modi government has brought historic and path-breaking reforms in socio-economic-educational fields, administration, trade, labour, defence, coal, civil aviation, power distribution, space, forest land, agriculture, communication, banking and investment sectors. "These bold reforms have ensured that India has converted a disaster into an opportunity," he said.
