The GST Council, chaired by Sitharaman and her counterparts from all states, last met on June 28-29 in Chandigarh.

Thereafter, the meeting was slated to take place in August at Madurai, but it did not happen.

“…in utter violation of this solemn provision, you have not called a single meeting of the Council over the last four-and-a-half months. Not even an intimation of any exigency was communicated to the Minister of State, Finance, of West Bengal or any other member of the GST Council,” Mitra wrote in the letter.

He also said that the two Group of Ministers (GoMs) on GST rate rationalisation and GST on casinos, online gaming and horse racing have not been able to submit their report. The GoM on rate rationalisation had in June submitted only an interim report.

“I humble urge you to call a meeting of the GST Council urgently. May I also urge you to bring finality, through consensus, on the serious matters pending with 2 GoMs for over a year,” Mitra said.
