Modi is on a ‘centralisation spree’: Shiv Sena

TIL Desk/National/Mumbai/ Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of being on a “centralisation spree” as he criticised demonetisation and the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

Mr. Thackeray said reforms were a must, “but one should pause” to review their impact. In an interview to the Sena mouthpiece, Saamna, he said that going by government advertisements, one would get a feeling that everything was hunky-dory, but one should check the reality.

“I read somewhere that 15 lakh people lost their jobs in the four months after demonetisation. It means 60 lakh families were affected.” “Rajiv Gandhi had introduced autonomy through the Panchayati Raj when he was the PM. Modi has taken away the autonomy and is on a centralisation spree.”
