Industrialists in India wary of paying ‘CBI taxes’: Mamata Banerjee

  • Mamata Banerjee accused the centre of creating an unfriendly atmosphere for investors. She claimed that industrialists are scared of paying “CBI taxes”, in addition to regular levies. 
     
  • She clarified that by "CBI tax", she meant clearances from the central investigating agency. TMC boss had recently claimed that businessmen in the country feel intimidated by the CBI, the IT dept. & the ED. 
     
  • Speaking at the concluding session of the 'Bengal Business Conclave', the CM also urged businessmen to invest in the state, where there is "no mental tension". 
     
  • In a counterattack, BJP President Dilip Ghosh slammed the TMC for making baseless allegations and said “TMC-aided syndicate raj” has destroyed the investor-friendly atmosphere of Bengal. 
     
  • As far as ease of doing business is concerned, Banerjee assured the corporates of complete cooperation from the state government.
