Addressing an event here, the road transport and highways minister also said that the logistics cost in India will come down to 9% within two years.

"Do not ask for reducing goods and services tax (GST) and taxes, it is a continuous process which is going on. If we reduce the tax, you will ask for more, because this is human psychology," Gadkari said.
