Kejriwal writes letter to PM Modi : Aam Aadmi Party convener and former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has written a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on farmers and the middle class.
Through this letter, the AAP convener has appealed to PM Modi to waive off the loans of farmers and the middle class. Kejriwal has urged the central government to enact a law to stop loan waivers for companies ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections.
Govt is taking favour of rich
The AAP supremo has demanded that PM Modi enact a nationwide law to stop the waiver of loans given to billionaires. Addressing a press conference on Tuesday, Kejriwal criticised the central government and alleged that the rich were being favoured by waiving corporate loans worth thousands of crores of rupees. He claimed that such practises impose a heavy tax burden on ordinary citizens while benefitting the wealthy.
Why are the loans of the common people not waived?
“Raising the question, Kejriwal said, “”Common people are paying half of their salary in taxes, while the loans of the rich are being waived.” Why does the central government not release the home loans, car loans or other financial burdens of the common people?
He emphasised that by stopping the loan waiver of billionaires, the government can halve the income tax and GST rates, double the tax income limit and abolish the GST on essential goods. “This is a huge scam and the time has come to end it,”” she said.”
When will elections be held in Delhi?
The Delhi Assembly elections will be held on February 5 and the results will be declared on February 8. In the 2020 assembly elections, the Aam Aadmi Party had won 62 out of 70 seats. At the same time, the Bharatiya Janata Party is trying to end the 27-year exile and the Congress is in the game of regaining its lost popular base.
