BJP stealing our ideas only: Sonia Gandhi
In her speech to party MPs in the morning in Parliament, she said: "Well, they are welcome to steal our ideas. They are welcome to borrow our programmes, Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery," she said.
Congress has now only 44 seats in Parliament after a drubbing the last elections.
She said the BJP is now following the Congress on the issue of FDI in Insurance, fuel price hike, Aadhar scheme, goods and services tax sugar subsidies while they had opposed them on these when in the Opposition.
She said the BJP rule's "lesson in these ten weeks is that the BJP has nothing new to offer the country." "They attacked us without principles and they are now governing us without policies," she said.
Sonia Gandhi and Congress Vice-president Rahul Gandhi earlier had attacked the BJP on the issue of communal violence claiming that since the BJP came to power the communal clashes have risen many times in states like Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra.
