In a spirited outreach effort, Chief Minister Prof. (Dr.) Manik Saha on Wednesday led a massive GST awareness drive across key marketplaces in Agartala, including Maharajganj Bazar, Kaman Chowmuhani, and Smart Bazar. The campaign aimed to highlight the wide-ranging benefits of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) reforms implemented by the Union Government.
Interacting with traders, shopkeepers, and local citizens, the Chief Minister emphasized the transformative impact of the GST reforms, calling them a "festive gift" from the Central Government under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“These reforms are not just about simplifying tax; they are about empowering our economy, making businesses easier to run, and ensuring transparency in the system,” said CM Saha. “It is a significant step forward for both the common man and the trading community.”
The GST reforms aim to streamline the indirect tax system, promote compliance, and accelerate India’s economic growth. Officials accompanying the Chief Minister also distributed informative pamphlets and engaged with the public to clarify doubts about GST processes and benefits.
The drive witnessed enthusiastic participation from local residents and market associations, reflecting growing awareness and support for the government’s economic initiatives.
With such proactive efforts at the state level, the government hopes to ensure deeper understanding and smoother implementation of GST across all sectors.
