New taxation bill further weakens rights of states: TMC's Mahua Moitra

TMC MP Mahua Moitra on September 19 said that taxation and other Laws corners public funds for PM-CARES to direct detriment of state relief funds.

"The Taxation and other Laws (Relaxation and Amendment of Certain Provisions) Bill, 2020, is deeply problematic because it further weakens the rights and resources available to states by taking away statutory promises made under the new GST regime and it corners the public funds for PM-CARES to the direct detriment of state relief funds," said Moitra in an ongoing Parliament session.
