Congress FMs expose GST flaws: Chidambaram

Former Union Minister P. Chidambaram on Friday said the letter of finance ministers of Congress-ruled states has exposed the structural flaws in the design and implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

In a series of tweets, he said the letter would set the tone for discussions at the GST Council on Friday in Guwahati and one could expect a shower of changes in GST rates from that meeting.

Chidambaram said the government avoided a debate and voting in the Rajya Sabha on GST Bills. Now, they cannot avoid a debate in public domain or in the GST Council, he said.
