Congress chief promises a “real GST”; the party asks Modi to spell out stand


Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday described the minimum income guarantee scheme, a promise he made to electors on Monday, as a surgical strike on poverty. Separately, the Congress asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP to spell out whether or not they supported the plan.

“They did Demonetisation and Gabbar Singh Tax. We will give NYAY and a real GST. NYAY = Surgical Strike on Poverty = 72,000 Rs a year to India’s poorest 20 per cent,” Mr. Gandhi wrote on Twitter.

'Women-centric move'


At a press conference, Congress spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala said the Nyuntam Aay Yojana (NYAY) was not a “top-up scheme;” it would be women-centric: the annual income of Rs. 72,000 would be credited to the bank account of the woman of the household.

Accusing BJP Ministers of opposing the NYAY, Mr. Surjewala said it was “shameful that the pro-rich Prime Minister Modi is opposing the world’s biggest anti-poverty scheme.”
