 Shaw said she is very disappointed with the congress for stalling key bills like GST and land acquisition. She  termed it 'hypocrisy on part of the congress' and 'partisan politics' at its worst.

, "I think when Congress has embraced certain bills very very passionately, especially the GST bill, I don't understand why they would resist it with such fierce opposition," she said.

Ms Shaw also accused the Congress of following an anti-development agenda and said, "I think as a country we should put national interest ahead of everything else. And national interest today calls for development. I don't think the Congress is focused on poverty alleviation. They almost believe that the politics of poverty is the way they will get votes. And I think they need to think again."

Another top leader of corporate India, Adi Godrej has also expressed his disappointment with the congress for stalling bills... saying the opposition has put political considerations ahead of national interest.

Godrej told NDTV, "I was particularly disappointed in the Congress' stand on the GST because they were for GST. They wanted to push the GST during the UPA regime. I was particularly disappointed with their behaviour in the Rajya Sabha on the last couple of days, making an issue of Nitin Gadkari's resignation, which I think was a very minor issue to hold back such a major economic issue for the country."
