Ask traders on GST impact: PC to BJP

PTI

 Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Monday hit out at BJP for its resolution supporting implementation of GST and demonetisation, saying it was “utter contempt of public opinion”.

“BJP national executive supported implementation of GST. They should talk to traders & businessmen in their own party,” he said in a tweet. Chidambaram also said the BJP national executive’s support to demonetisation is “utter contempt of public opinion”. In its national executive, the BJP adopted a six-point agenda, including  one on praising the roll out of the GST which led to “one nation, one tax”.
