Govt hiking tax rates for common man, giving concessions to billionaires: Rahul Gandhi
Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said while the Narendra Modi government is hiking the rates of the income tax and other taxes for the common man, it is giving concessions to billionaires, and claimed that it is set to introduce another slab of the GST to burden people. Gandhi said the Congress will continue to oppose this «injustice» of imposing higher tax rates on things of daily use and giving concessions to big billionaires.
«See another example of concessions to capitalists and looting common people.
»On one hand, the income tax is increasing constantly in comparison to the corporate tax. On the other hand, the Modi government is preparing to collect more money through Gabbar Singh Tax," he said in a post in Hindi on X.
«It is heard that amidst the ever-increasing collection from the GST, the government is going to introduce a new tax slab — there is a plan to increase the GST on things of daily need.
»Just think — the wedding season is going on, people must have been saving every penny of their money and in the meantime, the government is going to increase the GST on clothes priced above Rs 1,500 from 12 per cent to 18 per cent," the leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha said.
