GST Row: Assembly Session likely to be deferred

National Conference provincial president, Nasir Aslam Wani, Tuesday said that the government has agreed to defer the Assembly session after concerns were raised by it that the implementation of GST violates the special status of the state.

Talking about the outcome of the meeting, Wani said, that the NC will oppose the draft legislation bill on GST if it does not safeguard the fiscal and political autonomy of the state.

The outcome of the meeting was that the government agreed to defer the scheduled four day Assembly session on GST beginning on 17th of this month.

The government will hold a obituary session on 17th and then will defer the session. We demanded to form an expert committee which will review the GST bill and its applicability on fiscal and political autonomy of the state,  Wani said.
