Kerala FM said that if GST Council does not give solutions then the states should move together to approach Supreme Court to enforce the rights of states in terms of GST compensation. He also added GST Compensation arrears pending are about Rs 40,000 crore. He also said that state has not received any compensation after 2019 floods. “Kerala is not only standing up on the side of secularism but also pushing an alternative agenda for economic development. Kerala’s opposition to central policies is much more comprehensive. So I think there may be some animosity,” the minister said, adding that he will write to the Centre and try to meet FM Nirmala Sitharaman.
