Bengaluru, Sept. 4 -- Congress leader Priyank Kharge on Thursday criticised the Centre's recent GST reforms, and said that the "One Nation, One Tax" had turned into "One Nation, 9 Taxes."

Kharge also claimed that the Congress party had long pushed for a simpler GST system with lower rates to ease the burden on farmers, small businesses, and the middle class.

In a post on X, Priyank Kharge wrote, "A bit of common sense seems to have dawned upon the Modi Sarkar on the Gabbar Singh Tax. For almost a decade, the Indian National Congress has been demanding simplification of GST. "One Nation, One Tax" had become "One Nation, 9 Taxes" -- 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, 28%, and special rates of 0.25%, 1.5%, 3% and 6%."
