The Congress party has slammed the opposition parties for exhibiting political opportunism during the one day fast of anti-graft crusader Anna Hazare. 

Talking to mediapersons, Congress party's spokesperson Renuka Chaudhary said that the opposition parties had displayed a political opportunism of the lowest kind by attending Hazare's fast.Various opposition parties like the BJP, CPI, JD-U attended Hazare's fast and criticised the government over corruption and other issues. 

"The one day fast that you have all witnessed, the right political opportunism that has been witnessed by the entire nation is something that we will recall even as we go forward into retaining and re-establishing our democratic processes.

"It is unfortunate that political opportunism overrules practices of democracy, and targeting individuals making personal attacks on individuals are only a sorry state of affair. We can only pity on those who can believe that this is a way to establishing their national credentials," Chaudhary said.
