Sam Pitroda’s inheritance tax remark, BJP warns of ‘property snatchers’ Pitroda said – There should be a debate on imposing inheritance tax in India: Said – In America, after the death of a citizen, half of the property goes to the public.

Sam Pitroda said these things while talking to news agency ANI. He connected from Chicago in this interview. (file photo)

Indian Overseas Congress President Sam Pitroda said that there should be a debate on imposing inheritance tax in India. He said that there is inheritance tax in America. If a person has assets worth 100 million dollars. After his death, 45 percent of his property goes to his children, while 55 percent of the property becomes the ownership of the government. This is a very interesting law.

Pitroda further said that there is no such law in India. If someone here has assets worth Rs 10 billion. After his death, his children get all the property. Nothing is left for the public. I think people should discuss such issues.

However, Congress has distanced itself from this statement of Pitroda. Party general secretary Jairam Ramesh said that these are his personal views. This has nothing to do with the party.

PM said- Congress wants to loot your property
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in Chhattisgarh on Tuesday that Congress has said that it will also impose tax on the inheritance received from parents. The wealth you accumulate through your hard work will not be passed on to your children. That too will snatch the claws of Congress from you.

Modi said that this mantra of Congress will snatch your property and loot you. The mantra of Congress is, even with life, even after life. As long as you live, Congress will hit you with higher taxes. Those who gave the entire Congress Party to their children considering it as ancestral property, they do not want the common Indians to give it to their children. Read the full news…

BJP said- Congress is determined to destroy India
After Sam Pitroda’s statement, BJP has started criticizing him. BJP IT Cell Chief Amit Malviya has tweeted saying that Congress is determined to destroy India. Now Sam Pitroda advocates 50 percent inheritance tax for wealth distribution.

This means that whatever we create with all our hard work, 50 percent of it will be taken away. Apart from this, if Congress wins then whatever tax we pay will also increase.

Sam Pitroda said – my statement was distorted
As the controversy escalated, Pitroda said on social media platform X that it is unfortunate that my statement was distorted. Who said that 55 percent of the property will be snatched? Who said anything like this would be done in India? Why are BJP and media so nervous?

He further said that in my conversation, I had given the example of America’s inheritance tax only for America. Can’t I state the facts? I said these are issues that need to be discussed. This has nothing to do with the policy of any party including Congress.

If Modi ji had understood the importance of ‘Mangalsutra’ he would not have said such things.
