West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee on Monday said that the Centre's demonetisation move was a disaster.

Kolkata: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today slammed the Narendra Modi government by terming the Goods and Services Tax "Great Selfish Tax'' meant to harass people and finish 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)," Mamata posted on Twitter.
