Leader of Opposition Yuri Alemao has said the Congress-led INDIA government will definitely recover multiple crores of pending dues on account of GST on casino gambling, green cess, rural welfare cess, power bill Arrears, etc, from BJP's "crony capitalists" and utilize the funds of almost Rs 5000 crores for welfare of common people.
Reacting to the Statement of BJP National General Secretary Vinod Tawde on Inheritance Tax, Leader of Opposition Yuri Alemao said that the BJP is misleading common people. In reality, illegally accumulated wealth of crony capitalists who fund BJP to spread lies will be recovered and used for the welfare of common people, he said.
“Government has deliberately not recovered almost Rs 271 crores from mining companies. Almost Rs 263 Crores are pending from Adani, Vedanta, JSW on account of Rural Welfare Cess, Government is purposely going slow Green Cess Recovery from Companies involving Crony Capitalists, charged Yuri.
He added: “Why Vinod Tawde did not ask Goa Chief Minister Dr. Pramod Sawant about pending recovery of Rs 1400 Crores from industrialists and commercial establishments towards electricity bills? Why Government has not initiated steps to recover multiple crores of GST from the casino operators? These figures of pending recoveries will touch more than Rs 5000 crores.
Saying that Goans very well know the "dirty tricks" of the BJP, he said the Electricity and Water connections of common people is disconnected if payments are not made for two months, but industrialists are allowed to default on crores for years.
“BJP should stop making false propaganda as Congress is now fully equipped with factual data to expose their lies. We dare any of the BJP Leaders to face any of our Congress Functionary in an Open Debate on BJP's favouratism to Rich and Mighty," challenged Yuri.
