New Delhi, Dec 14 (IBNS): The Congress on Monday attacked Arun Jaitley for over his blog where the Union Minister slammed the party on the issue of disrupting the Parliament during the ongoing Winter Session of the Parliament.

The Congress said while only blogs are written,  no actions are taken when several crucial issues are raised by the party in the Parliament.

Jaitley on Monday referred  to former Indian PM Jawaharlal Nehru's speech and attacked the Congress over the issue  repeated disruptions in the Indian Parliament.

Citing a speech delivered by Nehru on Mar 28, 1957 in the Parliament, Jailtey attacked the Congress and wrote in his blog: "Those who claim the legacy of Pandit ji must ask themselves the question, what kind of history are they making."

"The last Session of the Parliament did not function. The current Session of the Parliament is also threatened with a wash out. The reasons for the wash out of the current Session keep changing by the hour," Jaitley said.

"The nation is waiting for the Parliament to discuss public issues, to legislate and approve a historic Constitution Amendment enabling the GST. All this is being indefinitely delayed. The question we need to ask ourselves is, 'are we being fair to ourselves and this country?," he said referring to the Goods and Services Tax Bill.

The Winter Session of the Parliament has witnessed repeated disruptions.
