Congress MPs first attacked the state govt and then walked out

“Why do you invite us to such meeting without sending an agenda along with the invitation? We can study the issues before coming here if you send agendam,” asked Dinsha Patel, central Minister of state. Another central Minister Tushar Chaudhary supported Dinsha’s remark and added: “The Chief Minister in one of the Garib Melas said that I had hold file of sanctioning Rs 300 crore aid to tribal of Gujarat. If the Chief Minister shows existence of such file, I am ready to sign it today. If there is no such file, Chief Minister should resign.” The member of parliament from Dahod, Prabha Taviyad also jumped in a discussion and asked why she was prevented to attend Garib Kalyan Mela in her constituency even though she was invited for the same. When BJP MP Purushottam Rupala passed comment against attacks of Congress MPs in the meeting, the Congress MPs said the UPA government has helped Gujarat 10 times more compare to NDA government, but Chief Minister continues to speak lies against the UPA government.
