Jammu and Kashmir may get statehood soon: Finance minister first indicated, then handled the matter

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Saturday indicated that the Center is considering the re-statement of Jammu and Kashmir. The Finance Minister was speaking about the funds being given by the Center to the states at an event in New Delhi when she said that Jammu and Kashmir can become a state again. However, again, while handling his point, he said that this can happen in the coming time.

In an event titled Center State Relations - Cooperative Federalism: The Path Towards Atma Nirbhar Bharat on Saturday, Nirmala Sitharaman said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has fully accepted the report of the 14th Finance Commission. Therefore, today 42% of the tax is given to the states. It is currently 41% less because J&K is no longer a state. It will soon become a state… it may happen after some time.

I don't differentiate between BJP and non-BJP states: Sitharaman

The Finance Minister said that I am doing my work with transparency without corruption. I do not differentiate between BJP-ruled states and non-BJP-ruled states. All the people should have faith in the government, they should have faith in their strength and the power of the government. The Prime Minister always promotes this and that is why we are discussing cooperative federalism.

He said that first of all it is necessary to win the trust of the people and no state is different in this. You cannot say that Modi Ji you are doing this work wrong because the state government does not support this. There is nothing to disbelieve in it. PM Modi has also been the Chief Minister, so his approach has not only been to sit on the post but to win the trust of the people with all his work.

Your tax money is very valuable to me: Sitharaman

The Finance Minister said that you people pay the money in tax, they are as valuable to me as the money kept in my pocket. I want to use that money in the best possible way. Apart from the common needs of all, this money is not going to be spent anywhere. That is why we have given this slogan – Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, and Sabka Prayas.

Government schemes to make people's life easier - Finance Minister

He further said that the style of working of this government is to empower the citizens. People get a house, a toilet in the house, a person gets the opportunities he needs in life, the bank is within his reach, he can easily get a loan to start his own business and for this, he has to be a government official. Do not have to attest the paper. He doesn't have to mortgage his wife's gold ornaments and if he doesn't have gold with himself, he shouldn't have to look for someone else to guarantee it. Most of the government schemes are like this.
