If the Congress opposes this bill, then the nation will oppose Congress, every citizen and every businessman will oppose Congress. 'Congress is against the development of the nation, and they have established it by issuing a dissent note,' Jaitley told media persons here.
I hope Congress fixes their irresponsible behavior. Never have I seen a party giving a dissent note on something they proposed¿ We want the constitutional amendment on GST to be passed. Dissent note by Congress is hardly a dissent,¿ he added.
The select committee on Goods and Services Tax submitted its report in the Rajya Sabha earlier today with a proposal for three modifications to the Bill.
