New Delhi, May 19: Terming the Congress-led UPA-II the “most corrupt” government in the country’s history, the BJP today said the Central government has not even a single achievement to celebrate the completion of two years in power.
“The UPA government is going to complete two years in power but it has not even a single achievement to celebrate the occasion,” BJP national spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain told reporters.
He alleged that scams and scandals were coming out to light under regime of the UPA-II and “it will be remembered only for the corruption cases”.
The BJP spokesperson alleged that the Central government was “protecting” corrupt people.
“The Congress-led government is neck-deep in corruption.
It has hurt the people of the country and is a burden on the people. We advise Prime Minister Manmohan Singh not to waste the public money to celebrate completion of these two years,” Mr Hussain said.
He claimed that the UPA government has been proved to be the “most ineffective” government and the Supreme Court had to intervene on several issues.
“The government has totally failed on all the fronts be it employment, farmers’ suicide, internal and external security, foreign policy and others,” Mr Hussain said.
The BJP said the Opposition had for several times opposed the UPA’s “anti-people” policies but the government “destroyed” the democratic system of the country.
Further criticising the government, the BJP said it also “misused” the Constitutional institutions.
Mr Hussain said the country’s economic situation has worsened under the leadership of an economist Prime Minister.
Prices of essential commodities were increasing day by day, he said.
“The PM had assured to control price rise in 100 days of the government. But even after 720 days nothing has been done. There is a disappointment among the people against the government,” the BJP leader added.
