GST Affected 60 Percent of Power Looms badly and BJP didn't listen: DMK Candidate Ganapathi Rajkumar

DMK's Coimbatore parliamentary candidate, Ganapathi Rajkumar, campaigned across multiple areas, addressing the closure of 60% of power looms due to GST implications, and promised to voice the local demands in Delhi.
