BJP promises IT Exemption up to Rs 3 Lakhs – Remember what they did earlier?

More than ten years ago BJP leaders have been shouting hoarse that Income tax exemption limit should be Rs. One Lakh – during the six- seven years they were in power they forgot all about it. Now the BJP Manifesto proposes the exemption limit at Rs. 3 Lakhs. If they come to power, they can forget it like last time and if they don't, it is a good election plank! Nothing to lose and everything to gain!! Public Memory is short and you can always take advantage of it.
