Goods and Services Tax (GST) is an indirect tax (or consumption tax) used in India on the supply of goods and services. It is a comprehensive, multistage, destination-based tax: Goods and services are divided into five different tax slabs for collection of tax – 0%, 5%, 12%, 18% and 28%. However, petroleum products, alcoholic drinks, and electricity are not taxed under GST and instead are taxed separately by the individual state governments
The tax came into effect from 1 July 2017 through the implementation of the One Hundred and First Amendment of the Constitution of India by the Indian government. The GST replaced existing multiple taxes levied by the central and state governments.

Why should Lord Yama be born as Vidura?
There is a story/reason behind whatever happens. So story goes thus:-
The was a sage named Mandavya. He lived in a hermitage in the forests on the outskirts of the city. One day while he was immersed in silent contemplation under the shade of a tree outside his hut of leaves, a band of robbers fled through the woods with officers of the king in hot pursuit. The fugitives entered the ashrama thinking that it would be a convenient place to hide themselves in. They placed their booty in a corner and hid themselves.
The soldiers of the king came to the ashrama tracking their footsteps. The commander of the soldiers asked Mandavya, who was rapt in deep meditation, the whereabouts of the robbers. The sage, who was absorbed in yoga, remained silent. The commander incessantly question insolently. But the sage did not hear anything. In the meantime some of the attendants entered the ashrama and discovered the stolen goods lying there. The commander thought that the reason why the brahmana pretended to be a silent is because he was the chief of these robbers and had also inspired the robbery.
The king was informed about this and without verifying the facts he ordered them to impale him. The commander returned to the hermitage, impaled Mandavya on a spear and handed over the stolen things to the king. The virtuous sage, though impaled on the spear, did not die since he was in yoga. Sages who lived in other parts of the forest came to his hermitage and asked Mandavya how he came to be in that terrible state. Mandavya humbly replied that the soldiers have inflicted the punishment. King was frightened to hear that the sage was still alive and asked him forgivingness for the unwittingly committed crime.
Mandavya was not angry with the king. He went straight to Dharma, the divine dispenser of justice, asked him what crime had he committed to deserve this torture. Yama replied that he had tortured birds and bees when he was a child. This was a result of that offence.
Mandavya then pronounced a curse to Yama because the decree of punishment was not comparable to the mistakes committed by a child in ignorance. Lord Dharma who was thus cursed by the sage Mandavya incarnated as Vidura and was born of the servant-maid of Ambalika, the wife of Vichitravirya.
