Apart from this, Akhilesh Yadav said that the BJP only believes in doing everything forcefully. After the ban, GST also broke the back of the country by implementing GST. The decision of demonetization felt that it was in our interest. He then (BJP) implemented GST. With these forced decisions, the BJP ruined the country's economy.
