New Delhi, Jan 30 (ANI): Calling present government 'arrogant', Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad after attending all-party meeting, claimed that govt is least bothered about social issues including sinking economy, rising unemployment and only focused on getting bills passed. "Government is focused only on getting Bills passed but we also drew their attention towards sinking economy, rising unemployment and Kashmir. We told them Farooq Abdullah be released so that he can attend Parliament, others be released too," said GN Azad. "The govt is least bothered about the people protesting on streets over CAA-NRC. This shows their arrogance. They are not bothered about farmers too. The opposition wants that these issues be discussed too and the govt should be sensitive about it," he added further. All-party meeting was held ahead of Budget Session which will commence on January 31.
