New Delhi, Sep 23 (UNI) The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Tuesday launched a sharp critique of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s promotion of the ‘GST Bachat Utsav’ (GST Savings Festival), with senior leader Sanjay Singh alleging the initiative is an attempt to mislead the public after years of what he termed as economic hardship caused by the tax regime.

Speaking at a press conference, Singh drew parallels between the new initiative and the demonetisation of 2016, which he said led to public suffering without delivering on its promises.

“During demonetisation, more than 100 people lost their lives while standing in queues, and 99.30 percent of the money returned to the banks. Neither black money ended, nor counterfeit notes ended, nor did terrorism end,” Singh stated.
