The Opposition protested as soon as Finance Minister Arun Jaitley rose to introduce four bills – Central GST, Integrated GST, Union Territories GST and compensation law. Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge and AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi also opposed the way the GST bills were introduced. Once the bills are cleared by Lok Sabha, they will go to Rajya Sabha. The GST bills are being presented as money bills and the Upper House cannot make amendments to them. But if there are any suggestions, Lok Sabha can take a call on them.
