In light of the ongoing Congress protests over the second anniversary of demonetisation, the BJP has asked 10 questions of Rahul Gandhi's party. The questions have been posted one-at-a-time on Twitter and focus on a number of areas, including aspects that are specific to the Congress, as well as to do with the economy.

Here are the BJP's 10 questions for the Congress Party:

1. Why does Congress find merit in protesting against every anti-corruption measure of the Government of India? What do they fear? 

2. Why is it that wherever black money is there, the Congress is not far behind?

3. What sort of politics and anti-development mindset is this of the Congress that opposes a bold move that has widened the tax base? 

4. How is a former Finance Minister, himself under radar of investigating agencies for massive corruption involving land, cash and foreign bank accounts, speaking on policy matters? With what face? 

5. Mr Anand Sharma, a Congress leader, had personally opposed demonetisation on the floor of Parliament. In the last 2 years, India has seen an increase of more than 2 crore tax returns. Is this why you were opposed to demonetisation? 

6. Informal economy meant exploitation of the poor and the marginalized, many of whom came from lower middle class. Demonetization has lead to formalization of the economy, which has empowered them. Why is Congress opposing that? 

7. Is the Congress party living in a state of denial that it cannot see the surge in GDP numbers, the ‘Ease of Doing Business Rankings’ and Global Competitiveness Index? Why are they unhappy that India’s economic prowess is being recognized world over?

8. Why is it that whenever India’s standing in the world increases the Congress takes to defaming India and creating an atmosphere of gloom to mislead the people?

9. Congress now remembers small business but did the UPA think of this sector even once? Except tax terror, raid raj and arbitrary policies, what did Congress do for small businesses?

10. Can the Congress name even one stringent measure they took during the UPA regime, which was aimed at eliminating corruption and black money?
