| AICC Seva Dal Chief lashes out Modi Govt for increase in GST | | Mir condemns house arrest of Farooq Abdullah | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Jan 1: AICC Seva Dal Chief Lal Ji Desai today hit out at the Modi Govt for the increase in the GST rates on items of common use and described it as as new year's gift to the people.
He said that for the last seven years unprecedented price hike, high inflation rates with high unemployment rate are the hallmark of BJP Govt.
Addressing a press conference at PCC HQ today along with JKPCC Chief G.A. Mir, Working President Raman Bhalla, Chief Spokesperson Ravinder Sharma, General Secretaries Yogesh Sawhney and Manmohan Singh, Treasurer Rajnish Sharma and JK Seva Dal Chief Vijay Sharma, Lal Ji Desai expressed deep shock over the tragedy at holy Mata Vaishno Devi Ji and expressed deep sympathies with families of those killed and prayed for early recovery of the injured. JKPCC Chief G.A. Mir termed the incident as a result of the grave negligence on the part of the administration and management and demanded a high level probe into the tragedy. He demanded adequate ex-gratia relief of Rs 50 lakh for the causality and 10 lakh to the seriously injured. Two minutes silence was also observed on the occasion.
The AICC Seva Dal Chief said that every New Year Day, we used to wish each other happiness and prosperity. However, have you ever thought about what our government is giving us on the new year for our happiness and prosperity? What are Modi Ji and his Government wishing for us? Like for the last seven years, this year also the gift given to the people of the country by the Modi government is - 'Gift of Mehngai- Price Rise and Inflation'. On the first day of 2022 Modi Government gave a New Year gift to all of us in the form of Inflation-2022. This new inflation is coupled with a consistently high unemployment rate above 7.5%+ during most of the year 2021. Should we THANK YOU, MODI Ji, for this?, Desai quipped.
JK PCC Chief G.A. Mir condemned the unlawful action of the Govt to put former Chief Minister and sitting Member of Lok Sabha Farooq Abdullah and others under house arrest, as per reports and termed it unfortunate and against the principles of democracy and Constitution. Replying to a question, he said that peaceful right to protest is recognized and guaranteed by the Constitution and basic principle of democracy but such actions are very harsh undemocratic and unlawful and condemnable. |
