Will change structure of GST if voted to power in Centre, says Rahul Gandhi


Shillong, Jan 31 (Deccan Chronicle): Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said Congress will change the structure of the GST (Goods and Services Tax) if it is voted to power in the Centre.

Addressing an event in poll-bound Meghalaya, the Congress president said, "We are fighting RSS ideology across the nation. Idea is that one form of thinking is imposed on the country. What BJP and RSS are doing in all over India and particularly in North-east is attempting to undermine your culture, language and way of life."

Rahul said, RSS idea is aimed at disempowering women. He said, "Does anyone know many leadership positions are with women in RSS? Zero. If you see pictures of Mahatma Gandhi you'll find women on this side (right), this side (left) but if you see pictures of Mohan Bhagwat, he'll be alone or surrounded by men."

The Congress president said one of the most important things to be done in the Congress is to balance the number of men and women fielded in the election.

Inviting women to join the Congress in Meghalaya, Rahul said, "I would like to invite women to join the party in Meghalaya so that we have more and more women to choose from."

    Congress and BJP if they rule India for another seventy years also no development can take place. Poor will become poorer and rich will become richer . Their main policy is to divide the people and rule,so they can enjoy the power. Congress wooing the minorities and BJP majority people for this. No leaders got punishment from both the parties who were responsible for 1984 Sikh riots and 2002 Godhra riots in which thousands of innocent people were killed. So if these two parties continue to rule, forget about development there will not be any security for life also. If Congress party was honest they should have taken the initiative in punishing the main culprits responsible for Sikh riots . Because of not doing so people were not afraid in doing Godhra riots and this cycle will be going on if these two parties rule our country.

    ..He will change it from GABBAR to RUBBER..this is what Sonia did in ten years, he will continue the same..even if they manage to win with allies (distance dream), he wont take any responsibility, this way he can blame opposition & his ruling party same time(tore MMS ordinance) and be clean forever..leader is who works, take responsibility, execute, take decision under pressure and also takes blames for good or bad..this how a leader emerges..But what Rahul did it ten years of UPA..Just his media/ his mentors/ leftist/intellectuals telling around he is a future leader with capacity thats all..

    From Pakoda-Chai Economy (Street Level) to Multi National Corporate Economy( Global Level). Shri Rahul Gandhi we believe you can do it because your party was initiator and pioneer in free market economy. You have done this before successfully.
