New Delhi, 7 October(Wishav Warta): After the government announcement relief in GST , the Congress on Saturday alleged that the Goods and Services Tax (GST) had “failed” and left “the economy in misery.”
Blames BJP government “GST has failed due to structural irregularities, leaving the economy in misery & Modi & Co trying to save face,” the party tweeted.
The party expressed doubts about the benefits of the GST changes that were announced on Friday. These recommendations are expected to give relief to small and medium businesses on filing and payment of taxes. “The planned relief package is said to ease the burdensome tax compliance of the current law, however, one remains skeptical about the degree of relief that will be provided to the small traders,” it said.
The Congress claimed that PM Modi was in damage-control mode after “the complete economic narrative had turned against the one crafted by his government.”
