T.T.V. Dhinakaran, the founder of AMMK, recently made headlines by exiting the National Democratic Alliance (NDA). Despite this political shift, he has publicly expressed his admiration for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s new Goods and Services Tax (GST) reforms, which officially came into effect on Monday, September 22, 2025.
In a detailed social media post, Mr. Dhinakaran emphasized that these GST changes are meticulously designed to bring substantial advantages across various segments of society, including the underprivileged, the middle class, and the vibrant trading community. He specifically highlighted how the central government’s proactive reforms have successfully led to a reduction in the costs of essential items and services, such as vital medicines, personal insurance policies, and comprehensive health insurance plans.
“My sincere gratitude goes out to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for successfully implementing these transformative GST reforms,” stated Mr. Dhinakaran. “These changes truly arrive as a magnificent ‘Deepavali gift’ for both the general public and businesses across the nation.”
