‘What prevented DMK from implementing poll promise?’
AIADMK co-coordinator and Leader of Opposition Edappadi K. Palaniswami on Wednesday asked Chief Minister M.K. Stalin what prevented the DMK regime from implementing an electoral promise of getting petroleum products covered under the Goods and Services Tax (GST). He sought a clarification from the Chief Minister on the issue.
In a statement, he referred to the reported observation of DMK treasurer and Parliamentary party leader T.R. Baalu wherein he had favoured the inclusion of petrol and diesel within the GST on the ground that the prices of the products would go down by ₹40 to ₹50 per litre. Mr. Baalu was also said to have mentioned that this was the position mentioned in the election manifesto of the party for the Assembly election.
Mr. Palaniswami referred to reports in sections of the media that the Union government favoured the move which was being opposed only by Tamil Nadu and West Bengal.
