All the religions in the constitution of India have the same place. But, some people fulfill their selfish motives ignite hatred among different religious communities. One such news is going viral on the internet with the claim that the Mamta government in West Bengal has waived off the GST on Muslim traders. Further, @KisKumMis wrote on his handle, “Secularism- Secularism- Mamta government will provide GST waiver for Muslim traders. Mamta Banerjee’s government in West Bengal says that Muslim traders have been harmed by GST, so The government will pay the tax, that is, the tax waiver of Muslim traders. The Muslim population in Bengal has become 35%.”

सेकुलरिज्म-
मुस्लिम व्यापारियों का GST माफ़ GST भरेगी ममता सरकार पश्चिम बंगाल में ममता बनर्जी की सरकार का कहना है की GST से मुस्लिम व्यापारियों को नुक्सान हुआ है, इसलिए
टैक्स सरकार भरेगी, यानि मुस्लिम व्यापारियों का टैक्स माफ़। बंगाल में मुस्लिम जनसँख्या 35% हो चुकी है।
