Nobody listens to Sushma Swaraj in BJP: Arjun Modhwadia
Surat, July 2: Gujarat Congress leader Arjun Modhwadia on Tuesday lashed out at BJP leader Sushma Swaraj for demanding the resignation of Uttarakhand Chief Minister Vijay Bahuguna, saying that nobody listens to the Leader of Opposition in her own party.
"I feel bad as no one listens to her in her party. If Sushmaji wants to help, then she should say to her party to help in relief and rehabilitation," Modhwadia said.

Swaraj
and
said
the
need
of
the
hour
was
for
leaders
and
activists
of
various
political
parties
to
unite
and
ensure
the
completion
of
all

operations
in

Uttarakhand.
"In these difficult times, we have been through so many tragedies. Have you forgotten the Gujarat earthquake, the cyclone in Odisha, nobody began asking midway for the governments to be dismissed because it's not the time. The time is for providing relief and rescue. So, that is what I find absolutely unthinkable on the behalf of a big leader," she told media here.
Swaraj earlier said that the Vijay Bahuguna Government in Uttarakhand has not been able to rise to the occasion.
"I am sorry to say that the Government in Uttarakhand has not been able to rise to the occasion. They ought to be dismissed for being inept and incompetent," she tweeted.
