New Delhi, May 21: As the UPA Government completes three years in office, the BJP today mocked at the ruling coalition as an 'Ulta-Pulta Alliance' which had created more problems for the common man after ascending to power in the name of Aam Aadmi.

BJP Vice President Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said the UPA had betrayed the common man as the country law and order scenario saw big leap in violence be it internally stoked naxalism or externally sponsored terrorism. None of the problems affecting the common man was solved be it corruption, poverty, unemployment, price rise, high interest rate or inflation.

He said the authority of the Prime Minister had shrunk so badly that there is confusion who is running the government the PM, the Super PM or the DMK or the Left parties?.

Two known economists Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Finance Minister P Chidambaram were unable to lift the country's sagging morale, Mr Naqvi added.

Indian society, he alleged was vertically divided by religion based reservation aimed at propelling ruling coalition's vote banks.

The Government was not bothered about national interest but was doing everything possible to keep itself in power even at the cost of harming the nation.

While the Congress got embroiled in Oil For Food Scam, the government merely sacrificed its Foreign Minister Natwar Singh but let off the Congress which was named as a beneficiary in the Paul Volcker report of the United Nations.

The Government had also helped Italian fugitive Ottavio Quattrocchi by aiding the release of money frozen in his London bank account.

When there was an opportunity to extradite him to India after his detention in Argentina, the government did nothing to get him back to India to face the legal proceedings.
