New Delhi, June 30 (IBNS): With few hours left for the GST implementation and with key Opposition parties determined to boycott the midnight celebration, NCP leader Praful Patel on Friday expressed his disgust at the opposition parties' 'fuss' over the launch of the one taxation system.
The biggest tax reform since Independence, Goods and Services Tax (GST), will roll out on July 1 and a celebration has been organised by the central government at the parliamentary house on June 30 midnight.
However, several political parties such as the Congress, Trinamool Congress, Rashtriya Janata Dal, and the Left have decided not to attend the midnight celebrations, though the GST bill earlier received a consensus of all parties.
Attacking a section of the Opposition, Patel said on Twitter: "All parties unanimously passed #GST in parliament. State Governments of different parties approved the rates. Now why so much fuss over the launch function."
Another Union minister, Venkaiah Naidu, too attacked the Opposition for boycotting GST celebration at midnight.
"Both the President and Prime Minister will be present at the parliamentary house on June 30. They [Opposition parties who boycotted GST celebrations] can't even show respect to them by being present," Naidu said on Thursday.
