Raipur, September 28<\/p>\n
Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai today attended the GST 2.0 Reforms \u201cDhanyawad Modi Ji\u201d programme at the Medical College Auditorium in Raipur. The Chief Minister said that the GST reforms have brought historic changes in the economic sector, directly benefitting the common people. He added that reduction in GST rates has brought happiness to the lives of 140 crore Indians.<\/p>\n
On the occasion, the Chief Minister felicitated Padma Shri awardees from Chhattisgarh and national-level players. The programme was organised by the Chhattisgarh Chamber of Commerce and Industries, Raipur Division.<\/p>\n
Addressing the gathering, CM Sai said that the GST reforms were a historic and bold decision taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Under PM Modi\u2019s leadership, many such decisions have been taken which were once considered impossible. Whether it was the abrogation of Article 370 or the passage of the Triple Talaq Bill, these reforms have provided strength to the people.<\/p>\n
The Chief Minister said, \u201cI am personally visiting people to understand the benefits of GST rate cuts. Recently, when I visited a mart to meet families purchasing daily essentials, homemakers told me that these reforms had reduced their kitchen budgets. As they shared the reduced prices of each item, their faces lit up with smiles. Farmers too have received major relief. At a tractor showroom, I was informed that tractor prices had come down by \u20b965,000 to \u20b91 lakh.\u201d<\/p>\n
Highlighting the role of entrepreneurs, the Chief Minister said that traders will play a crucial role in building a developed Chhattisgarh. \u201cThe state\u2019s new industrial policy has been widely appreciated by investors. During my recent visits to Japan and Korea, Investor Connect programmes were held, and several Asian investors expressed keen interest in investing in Chhattisgarh. Large-scale industrial investments will generate significant employment opportunities in the state,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Member of Parliament Brijmohan Agrawal said that the GST reforms introduced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi are unprecedented. \u201cThis step is empowering the common man. While the reduced prices of essential commodities are benefiting people, the national economy is also becoming stronger. The reforms are receiving an overwhelmingly positive response from citizens,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
