Still I got a feel that India is Independent and democratic?
Because people are getting less respect than a cow and we don't have no rights to speak about the leaders.
Better to be under dictator because they even don't ask 28% tax for goods and 150% tax for fuels.
India is one of the worst country to be lived.
Please don't do agenda-based posts outside 'Political & Society' section, especially in such an old thread which is completely irrelevant to your post.
You said 28% tax for Goods. Only 31 items are currently included in 28% tax bracket. Such items include Pan Masala, Lottery, aerated water, aircraft for personal use, etc. No 'necessity' and 'comfort' item is under 28% bracket. Moreover, hardly 10% luxurious goods are under 28% bracket, rest 90% are either in 18% or lower.
Coming to fuel. 150% tax is not levied directly. It includes portion of central tax, portion of state share and cess. This setup is effective from long time, not introduced by current government. However, new FM Nirmala Sitharaman has shown sign in her last speech that petrol and petroleum products as covered under Section 9(2) of CGST Act will soon come to effect and will cover under GST Act. This will lead to decrease in the prices of petroleum products.
You say we don't have rights to speak against leaders, are you serious? India is a democratic nation and everyone has right to criticize leaders. I personally troll both ruling party, PM and opposition parties on Twitter. No one comes to arrest me!
Yeah! You may face such arrests if you are living in West Bengal, the only Indian state having tyrant ruler.
