No reason to delay implementation of GST: Haryana finance minister
Capt. Abhimanyu was quoted as saying, "We are prepared for initial hiccups".
Haryana is a Bharatiya Janata Party-ruled state.
The biggest tax reform since Independence, Goods and Services Tax (GST) will roll out on July 1.
Several opposition parties like Congress, Trinamool Congress, Rashtriya Janata Dal, Left boycotted the GST celebration on June 30 midnight, to be organised by the government.
Opposition has cited the unprepared small and medium scale industry as the reason for their boycott. They called it an implementation in hurry.
Attacking the Modi government for lack of foresight in the GST implementation, Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi called the biggest tax reform a 'tamasha' (drama).
President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be present at the celebration.
