We said it is not necessary to pass the GST Bill on July 1 only."“J&K is the sensitive state and for some time if the Bill is not passed it won't make much difference. We told the government that let us discuss the Bill in the Assembly first and if there are any apprehension, let the government clear it in the House,” he said.“Government is itself not clear over the GST implementation. There is difference of opinion over the issue between alliance partners PDP and BJP and the apprehensions of people are genuine in this scenrio. We told the government that we won't allow anybody to erode the fiscal autonomy of the state,” the PDF chief added. (KNS)
