The CPI(M) on Tuesday claimed that over Rs 4,000 crore arrears in Goods and Services Tax (GST) share was due to Tamil Nadu from the Centre and accused the ruling AIADMK in the State of not putting pressure to get it besides other pending central funds.
The party alleged that several states were cash-strapped as the Centre was encroaching on states' areas of revenue.
Tamil Nadu was reeling under a debt burden of approximately Rs four lakh crore, the Marxist party claimed.
In a resolution passed at its state committee meeting, the CPI (M) said: "Rs 4,073 crore of arrears in GST share is due to Tamil Nadu."
