Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has attacked PM Modi over the Central Government’s decision to impose 18 percent GST on Ganga water. The Congress President has strongly targeted the Central Government through social media regarding this matter.
He wrote on the social media platform It is good that you are in Uttarakhand today, but your government has imposed 18% GST on the holy Ganga water itself. Not even once did I think what would be the burden on those who get Ganga water supplied to their homes. This is the pinnacle of plunder and hypocrisy of your government.”
Government will collect GST on online orders of Ganga water

Initially, the price of 200 and 500 ml Ganga water coming from Rishikesh and Gangotri was Rs 28 and Rs 38 respectively. At present, a 250 ml bottle of Ganga water of Gangotri was being given by the postal department for Rs 30.
