"The government had a cordial interaction with the Opposition over tea. But judiciary and CBI are independent ...The Congress resorted to stalling tactics in Parliament after the court summons were issued," BJP spokesman Shahnawaz Hussain said while addressing a press conference here.
Hussain said it was the Congress that was showing intolerance and had become a "Hungama Party", which was trying to block the passage of laws needed for the country.

In response to a question, Hussain said Muslims in India would not get a better neighbour than Hindus and that the minorities were best protected in India.
