The implementation of GST is bound to check rising prices, according to a UP state minister who also highlighted the achievements of the Yogi Adityanath government after it completed 100 days in office this week. "GST is an attempt to bring down prices of different commodities used by the common man," said Minister of State for Panchayati Raj and PWD, Bhupendra Singh, who is also minister in charge of Mathura. Singh said, no special status is given to certain districts, with 24-hour power supply at all district headquarters. 10,000 arrests have been made in an effort to check the land mafia with formation of "Anti-land mafia task force," he claimed.
