'In spirit of cooperative federalism': PM Modi targets states with high fuel prices, urges them to cut tax on petrol, diesel
“本着合作联邦主义精神”:莫迪总理针对燃料价格高的邦,敦促他们削减汽油和柴油税
NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday flagged the issue of high fuel prices in some opposition-ruled states and urged these states to cut tax on petrol and diesel so as to provide relief to consumers.
新德里:周三,莫迪总理指出了一些反对党执政邦的燃油价格高企问题,并敦促这些邦削减汽油和柴油税,以减轻消费者的负担。
"I request states to reduce VAT on fuel prices in the spirit of cooperative federalism," the PM said during the concluding remarks of his interaction with chief ministers over rising Covid cases in the country.
“我要求各邦本着合作联邦主义精神降低燃料价格中的增值税,”总理在与首席部长就不断上升的新冠病例进行互动的总结发言中表示。
The Prime Minister said that the Centre had reduced excise duty last November to ease fuel prices and had also advised states to cut taxes.
总理说,中央政府去年11月降低了消费税,以缓解燃料价格,并建议各邦削减税收。
"In order to reduce the burden of rising petrol and diesel prices, the central government reduced the excise duty last November. We had urged the states too to reduce their taxes. Some states reduced the tax and provided benefits to the consumers but some didn't do so," said PM Modi.
莫迪说:“为了减轻汽油和柴油价格不断上涨的负担,中央政府去年11月降低了消费税。我们也敦促各邦降低税收。一些邦降低了税收,为消费者提供了优惠,但有些邦没有这么做。”
However, it was mostly the BJP-run states which slashed VAT by different margins last year, taking cue from the Centre. The Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi did it much later.
然而,主要是人民党执政的邦在中央政府的指引下,在去年不同程度地削减了增值税。在德里,平民党政府很晚才这么做。
Naming the opposition-ruled states, PM Modi said, "Maharashtra, West Bengal, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Jharkhand, and Tamil Nadu did not follow the advice of Central government and people in these states are burdened with price rise."
莫迪在提到反对派统治的邦时表示:“马哈拉施特拉邦、西孟加拉邦、特伦甘纳邦、安得拉邦、喀拉拉邦、贾坎德邦和泰米尔纳德邦没有听从中央政府的建议,这些邦的人民承受着价格上涨的负担。”
"High fuel prices in these states is an injustice to their residents and also harmful for the neghbouring states," PM Modi said.
莫迪说:“这些邦的高油价对当地居民是不公平的,对邻近邦也是有害的。”
In his remarks, Modi cited the example of Karnataka and Gujarat, both ruled by the BJP, saying they have suffered revenue loss of nearly Rs 5,000 crore and Rs 3,500-4,000 crore respectively by reducing VAT but they did so to help people. Their neighbouring states did not, he added.
莫迪在讲话中援引了人民党统治的卡纳塔克邦和古吉拉特邦为例,称他们因降低增值税分别损失了近500亿卢比和350 - 400亿卢比的收入,但他们这么做是为了帮助人民。他补充说,他们的邻邦没有这么做。
Calling upon the opposition ruled states to act now, PM Modi said "I request these states to do now what they should have done in November. By reducing the VAT you can lower the burden faced by the residents."
莫迪总理呼吁反对党统治的邦现在就行动,他说:“我要求这些邦现在就做他们在11月就应该做的事情。通过降低增值税,可以减轻居民的负担。”
"I am not criticising anyone but am praying to you for the welfare of people of your states ... I urge you to reduce VAT now even after a delay of six months to benefit people," he said, with chief ministers of most of these states listening.
“我不是在批评谁,而是在为你们邦人民的福祉祈祷……我敦促你们现在就降低增值税,即使是在拖延了6个月之后,也要让人民受益,”他说道,这些邦的首席部长们在听着。

How he forgot Oil bonds repayment or interest? Russian oil is cheaper but who stopped us to buy?,November excise duty reduction was for Vidhan sabha elections in 5 States as everyone knows.
他怎么忘了石油债券的还款和利息?俄罗斯石油更便宜,但是谁阻止我们买呢?
众所周知,11月的消费税削减是为了5个邦的地方议会选举。

Central tax is much less compared to the state govt tax.
与邦政府的税收相比,中央的税收要少得多。

Paltry cut of Rs.5 from central cess duty on petrol diesel recently is a pittance.......
将汽油柴油的中央税削减5卢比是微不足道的.

如果政府没有钱,你怎么指望发展?90%的人不交税,不想交所得税,却大喊着要福利。

Ironically in Maharashtra Duty on imported liquor was reduced by 50% in November last year but VAT on petrol not reduced thanks to MVA Govt
具有讽刺意味的是,在马哈拉施特拉邦,进口酒类的关税在去年11月降低了50%,而汽油的增值税却没有降低

Why not bring Petroleum under GST and have universal pricing across India
为什么不把石油纳入商品服务税,在印度实行统一定价

The opposition fellows have gone too far in the name of Modi hatred, they don't even know that they have become Anti -public.
反对派以仇恨莫迪的名义做得太过分了,他们甚至不知道自己已经变成了反公众分子。

The opposition ruled states are in dire straits and they will have to impose on other commodities to match the revenue loss. Otherwise, they would have done it by now taking into account the perennial problem of cascading impact on all other commodities. They are playing dirty politics and one of the ways to tackle it is to bring it under GST. then they will learn the lessons. It is high time explore oil resources within India or use your good offices to buy in lots at competitive prices.
反对党统治的邦正处于水深火热之中,他们将不得不向其他大宗商品征税,以弥补收入损失。要不是考虑到对所有其他商品的连锁影响这一长期问题,他们早就这么做了。他们在玩肮脏的政治,解决的方法之一是将其纳入商品服务税。然后他们会吸取教训。是时候在印度国内勘探石油资源了,或者以有竞争力的价格买进。
