"The Narendra Modi government has centralised the power of the country. They are dictating terms in the Parliament. They are selectively choosing issues for the discussions in the Parliament. Congress is always trying to discuss every issued related to common people in the Parliament but they disrupt us. They do not allow opposition parties to raise issues in the Parliament.
"As they are not allowing us to discuss issues in the Parliament, Congress party has decided to raise the issues like inflation, price rise, unemployment in all states," he said.
Also hitting out at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Digvijaya Singh said that he has also got influenced by the BJP and the RSS.
