Nov 8 is a sad day for India, says Rahul Gandhi

All India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretaries and state in-charges met party Vice President Rahul Gandhi at party's headquarter in Delhi on Monday.

While addressing media, Rahul said,''November 8 is a sad day for India. Modi has not been able to understand the feeling of the nation. Demonetisation was a disaster.''

According to media reports, the meeting - to be held at the party headquarters in Delhi -- will also discuss the impact of demonetisation on small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and the unorganised sector.

The Congress and other opposition parties have already announced that they will observe the first anniversary of note ban on November 8 as 'Black Day' and hold protests across the country.

The party is also planning to launch a nationwide campaign against the GST. The Congress argues that the NDA has badly conceptualised the tax reform conceived by the UPA. Gandhi has described the GST as "Gabbar Singh Tax", a pun on the name of famous Bollywood villain in movie Sholay.

In yet another meeting later in the day which is scheduled to take place at 12 noon in Delhi, Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Rahul Gandhi will discuss on GST.
