New Delhi : Describing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as “most irresponsible”, the Congress Monday said it should apologise for criticising the court after the recent judgment in the 2G spectrum case.
“The BJP should apologise for its irresponsible behaviour of criticising the judiciary when the judgment is not against the government,” Congress spokesperson Abhishek Manu Singhvi told reporters.
“It is a sad day for democracy… The BJP has made it a practice to criticise the judiciary if it does not agree with the BJP or Subramanian Swamy,” Singhvi said, referring to the Janata Party president whose petition to name Home Minister P. Chidmabaram as co-accused in the 2G spectrum case was turned down by the trial court Saturday.
Singhvi said it was sad that the BJP was criticising the judiciary and other institutions “day after day, minute after minute”.
