Congress opposing GST rate cut on items that can benefit the middle class is a classic case of Congress trying to stymie benefit to the people of the country for petty political gains.
Populist policies like farm loan waiver of the Congress indicate two things; unwillingness to learn from past economic mistakes and the lack of a sound policy agenda to resolve some of the long-standing issues of Indian farmers.
The family of the deceased farmer allege that he ended his life as he was not entitled to the farm loan waive-off promised by the newly elected Chief Minister Kamal Nath.
