Trinamool Congress To Skip Midnight GST Launch, Congress Has Problems With Invite

Mamata Banerjee has confirmed that her Trinamool Congress will skip the government's mega midnight launch of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) this Friday. The Congress, which has been dithering for days, is yet to say no, but today objected to the invitation, which says that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will launch the biggest tax reform in India's history. The President must do the honours, the main opposition party argues.
