‘People’s wish fulfilled by PM Modi’: Chirag Paswan slams Congress over GST ‘politics’Union Minister Chirag Paswan hailed GST 2.0 as fulfilling a long-standing public demand, while accusing Congress of political inconsistency. Speaking to reporters, Paswan praised the new simplified tax structure, calling it the fulfilment of a long-standing public demand. Responding to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge’s criticism of the reforms, Paswan questioned the opposition’s consistency. With festival season underway and GST 2.0 promising price relief, the BJP is highlighting the reform as a people-first policy, while the opposition brands it as short-term populism. Tax reform has thus become a fresh political flashpoint, blending economic policy with electoral messaging.
