Manish Sisodia at Tryst with Tax Conclave: Only government will gain from GST not aam aadmi

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has described the Goods and Services Tax (GST), which will be launched at a mega midnight Parliament event, as a great idea but slammed the Narendra Modi government over the way it is being implemented.

Sisodia also disapproved of the government's decision to celebrate the GST launch at a midnight event in Parliament.

He said, "When people will start paying taxes happily and there will be a shrink in the grey market, only then it will an occasion to celebrate, not now."
