Delhi/Hyderabad, Oct 12 (Hydnow) The Congress on Thursday flayed the Modi government for reportedly imposing an 18 percent GST on Ganga River Water, terming it as the height of loot and hypocrisy.
With Prime Minister Narendra Modi undertaking a day-long visit to Uttarakhand today, the Congress also asked when will visit violence-hit Manipur.
“Modi ji, the importance of Mother Ganga, the provider of salvation, is very high for a common Indian from birth till the end of their life. it is good that you are in Uttarakhand today, but your government has imposed 18% GST on the holy Ganga water itself. “Congress President Mallikarjuna Kharge said in a post in Hindi on X.
“Not even once did you think what would be the burden on those who order Ganga water to be kept in their homes. This is the height of loot and hypocrisy of your government, he also said.
The party also put out an animated video on the situation in Manipur on its social media handle, which showed scenes of bodies lying and the state burning due to violence. “The country is asking – when will PM Modi go to Manipur, “the Congress said. (Hydnow)
