Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh-

Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini, who also holds the portfolio of Finance department, said that the GST reforms recently implemented under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi represent one of the most significant tax reforms in the country’s economic history. These reforms are designed to provide relief to traders, simplify the lives of ordinary consumers, promote ease of doing business, and bring greater transparency to commercial activities.

To ensure the benefits of these reforms reach every section of society, the Chief Minister has directed the launch of a special “GST Awareness Campaign” from September 22 to October 15, 2025. The Excise and Taxation Department has prepared a comprehensive action plan to disseminate detailed information about the advantages and importance of GST reforms to both the public and traders.

The first phase of the campaign will run from September 22 to 29. During this period, the Chief Minister, all members of the State Cabinet, MLAs, and representatives from urban local bodies will actively participate in outreach activities. Each day, officials will visit designated markets to interact with 25 to 30 shopkeepers and customers to apprise them about the benefit of reforms. Citizens will also be encouraged to embrace swadeshi products during the campaign.

Saini added that officials from Chambers of Commerce and market associations will also be involved to ensure that the business community directly benefits. In addition, social media platforms will be leveraged to promote awareness about GST reforms across the state.

The Chief Minister said that the campaign aims not only to educate people about tax reforms but also to encourage the adoption of Indian-made products and strengthen the spirit of Swadeshi. He expressed confidence that the campaign will raise awareness among traders and consumers alike, ultimately empowering Haryana’s business environment and benefiting the general public.
