The deputy CM stated that the total SGST collection has reached 15,115 crore, up from 11,959 crore previously. He stated that an increase in SGST revenue was possible when a team of officials was formed to crack down on GST evasion.
He stated that initiatives were done to reduce data retrieval delays, and that the GST offices in Haryana were modernised at a cost of 30 crore.
Dushyant stated that transit slips were adopted to improve control of interstate liquor traffic, and high-security holograms were also implemented as part of the track and trace system.
He stated that flow metres and CCTV cameras had been installed at all Haryana distilleries and bottling plants. There will also be the option of using a QR code system to ensure process transparency.
The deputy chief minister stated that the BJP-JJP coalition will run jointly in the upcoming Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) and local body elections. He stated that the coalition administration is working smoothly and successfully. He further stated that the BJP and JJP will fight the next Lok Sabha and assembly elections together.
In response to a query, Dushyant stated that every political party is preparing for the local body elections, and that the BJP-JJP will decide on the seat-sharing formula, which is already being discussed.
According to the deputy chief minister, the Haryana government has begun the process of holding elections as soon as the Punjab and Haryana high court gives its approval.
According to the deputy chief minister, all tehsils and patwarkhanas would be provided with digital tools, and farmers will be able to self-report agricultural loss through a shared platform.
He stated that the Haryana government will soon launch a service that will allow farmers to upload crop damage information via their cell phones, hence reducing the delay.
