“I feel very happy when a poor person writes to say how because of GST prices of various items essential for him have come down.GST is a fine example of the collective strength of the people of India. This is a historic achievement.We remember Mahatma Gandhi for his leadership during ‘Quit India’ & we remember leaders like Lok Nayak JP & Dr. Lohia who took part in it.Today, we do not have to die for the nation. We have to live for our nation and take it to new heights of progress.” – India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his radio broadcast, entitled “Mann ki Baat,” on July 30, 2017.
