A Thread on #Letterectuals 🧵
#Letterectuals No. 1

Clearly, empathy and understanding are overrated qualities in a leader, as evidenced by Senator Richard Durbin's stellar performance mocking Indians waiting for their Green Cards.

#Letterectuals No. 2

Oh, the legendary Pramila Jayapal, renowned for her exquisite anti-India and anti-Hindu bias. Truly a shining example of fair and unbiased representation. We can all aspire to be as open-minded and inclusive as her.

#THREAD GST Classes For RaGa

Does GST tax health insurance more heavily?

GST on health insurance services is set at 18%.
In the pre-GST era as well, health insurance was standardized at 18%.

Therefore, health insurance is not taxed at a higher rate under GST.
#THREAD GST Classes For RaGa

Did you know?

Insurance schemes catering to economically weaker sections of society and differently-abled have received significant relief from GST.

Even healthcare services are completely GST-exempt!

Who is an #OppositionJeevi?

One who will not shy from derailing reforms in national interest only to keep his/her politics alive!

Notwithstanding that not long ago, they sought these reforms too!

Here is a list of 10 such U-Turns made by the Modi-opposition gang!
No. 1: Farm Laws

The opposition attacked Modi govt over the Farm Laws, exposing their hypocrisy & double standards!
