With Parliament getting stalled over demonetisation for the 13th consecutive day, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today said that Congress and Trinamool Congress are indulging in "competitive obstructionism".
"It is now competitive obstructionism between the Congress and the Trinamool which is holding up the debate in Parliament," Jaitley said in a Facebook post.
The ongoing Winter session of Parliament has virtually been a washout with opposition Congress and Trinamool staging vociferous protest against demonetisation of 500 and 1,000 rupee notes announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on November 8.
