Not sure of GST

I am confident Smart Cities will be a reality in 2018 but not sure if the future GST Act can survive in SC because of GSTN -- a PC time bomb - Subramanian Swamy

If taxpayers were dogs, the officials of the Finance Ministry would undoubtedly be convicted under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act.

The time has come for Parliament to enact some new legislation - say, Prevention of Cruelty to Taxpayers Act - which should override all fiscal legislation.

Until Tuesday with more DDT
