West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said GST stands for the “Great Selfish Tax,” offering social media another trending hashtag and the Narendra Modi government at the Centre criticism over its handling of the economy.
“Great Selfish Tax (GST) to harass the people. To take away jobs. To hurt businesses. To finish the economy. GoI totally failed to tackle #GST (sic),” tweeted Ms Banerjee, who accused the BJP-led Centre of faulty implementation of the new national tax.
In other tweets , the Bengal chief minister said last year’s notes ban was “a disaster” and urged social media users to protest by changing their profile pictures to black on Wednesday.
“#Noteban is a disaster. On #Nov8BlackDay to protest against this scam that destroyed the economy, let us also change our Twitter DP to black,” Ms Banerjee tweeted.
