It said, "The responsibility lies on the coalition government (ofPDP-BJP) to implement the GST as per the modes (including Ordinance) provided in the Constitution in tune with Article 370, for which the state government is fully qualified and has ample powers.
"But it (the government) wanted to run with thehare and hunt with the hounds to unnecessarily blame the Oppositionfor the delay and uncertainty, for which coalition is to be squarelyresponsible".
