PM Modi quotes Veerappa Moily while talking about the need to be fair and ensure equity among states. Says, “We will help Andhra as much as possible.”

 

“One rank, one pension was in limbo due to some people. So was GST. We discussed genuine issues with states for the GST rollout. If you were not arrogant, GST could have been rolled out 5 years ago. We increased MSP but you had sufficient time to do the same. When we came in 2014, people asked us to bring a white paper on economy. We were amazed at the state of the economy then. From 2008-2014, the bank loans increased to 52 lakh crore from 18 lakh crore in the 60 years since Independence.”
