Rajiv Gandhi abolished inheritance law to evade tax after Indira’s death, same Congress now wants to tax your kids: PM Narendra Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi accused former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi of abolishing inheritance tax to evade tax after Indira Gandhi’s death, alleging that Congress now aims to impose it on taxpayers. Modi’s remarks follow criticism of Congress leader Sam Pitroda’s inheritance tax comments. Congress distanced itself, emphasizing Pitroda’s remarks’ irrelevance to their agenda. The BJP intensified attacks, highlighting past Congress support for inheritance tax. As Lok Sabha elections approach, economic policy becomes a focal point.
