RBI lifts ban on on-boarding of new customers through Bank of Baroda's mobile app

The Reserve Bank has lifted the six-month-old ban it imposed on the second largest public sector lender Bank of Baroda from on-boarding new customers through its mobile app citing regulatory breaches and weak security systems. The Reserve Bank had in October 2023 ordered Bank of Baroda to immediately stop on-boarding new customers through its mobile app Bob World. In an exchange filing, the bank said, The Reserve Bank, vide a letter dated May 8, conveyed to us its decision to lift the restrictions on Bob World with immediate effect. As such the bank is free to onboard customers through this app in accordance with the applicable guidelines and extant regulations. Accordingly, the statement further said the bank will now resume on-boarding new customers through the app. The RBI action came after it was reportedly found that last July some BoB officials linked bank accounts to unrelated mobile numbers to achieve their sales on-boarding targets mainly in the Bhopal zone. The bank launched the app in late 2021 and the management reportedly set a stiff target for its sales staff. RBI governor meets stakeholders to further widen UPI reach Later, media reports said that bank employees in Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat and Jharkhand also adopted the same modus operandi adopted by the Bhopal zone employees to achieve the targets. When the news came out, the bank issued a statement denying any wrongdoing saying the use of unauthenticated mobile numbers for boosting app registrations is not possible as one mobile number can be counted with only one mobile app at any point in time. The bank targets only active users who can get on-boarded only through the system controls in place, rather than mobile app downloads or registrations, it said. However, later when the RBI imposed the curbs, it claimed that it has adopted corrective measures to address the concerns highlighted by the regulator, and would take further steps to plug any remaining gaps. It may be noted that since the pandemic, the RBI has been focusing a lot on the risk management systems of banks and other regulated entities, as with the pandemic driven lockdowns, most payments went online, leading to increased stress on their payments and settlement infrastructure. The first to be hit with the regulatory hardball was HDFC Bank in December 2020 when it ordered the largest credit card issuer to stop issuing new cards. Then last year it asked Bajaj Finance to stop acquiring new customers through its mobile app and later at the end of January, it ordered Paytm Payments Bank to virtually shut shop for breaching many regulatory firewalls. Then came the order on IIFL to stop new gold loans and JM Financial to cease lending against shares and finally late last month ordering Kotak Mahindra Bank to forthwith stop issuing credit cards as well as putting a ban on acquiring customers through any of its digital channels as well as through the mobile app.

Nine Naxals including two women from Chhattisgarh surrender before Odisha police

BHUBANESWAR: In a significant development ahead of elections, nine members (including two women) of the banned party outfit CPI (Maoist) surrendered before Odisha Police on Wednesday. The members hailed from Chhattisgarh. A Naxal surrendered before Kandhamal Police on Tuesday and nine did the same before Boudh Police a day later. Apart from the state government's effective rehabilitation policy, the continuous anti-Naxal operations has led to the recent surrenders, said ADG (Operations), Dev Datta Singh. Speaking to the reporters, Southern Range IG Jai Narayan Pankaj said that due to the enhanced anti-Naxal operations carried out in the both states, Odisha and Chhattisgarh, the red ultras are surrendering fearing for their lives and are reluctant to cross over to Chhattisgarh because of the tight security cordon due to the elections. Sources said most of the Naxals active in Odisha are from Chhattisgarh, some are from Andhra Pradesh and a very few are from within the state. In the last three to four months, at least five camps of Border Security Force (BSF) and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) have been set up in the core areas of Kandhamal and Boudh which were once the strongholds of the Naxals. Odisha Police's Special Operations Group along with BSF and CRPF are also regularly carrying out area domination exercises in Kalahandi, Kandhamal and Boudh and this has deterred the Naxals from carrying out any activity, said Pankaj. The surrendered Naxals identified as Yoggi Madvi alias Jyoti (20), Pozze Madvi (22), Bhima Kadti (22) Bhima Banjam (25), Bandi Banjam (30) Arma Raba (30) Malla Madvi (29), Deba Kadti (25) and Ayata Madvi (26) are from Muler village in Chhattisgarh's Dantewada district, said Boudh SP, Raj Prasad. Yoggi Madvi who had joined CPI (Maoist) in 2019 worked as the personal security guard of divisional committee member Sila alias Nagmani who is an active leader of 8th company of Kandhamal-Kalahandi-Boudh-Nayagarh (KKBN) division operating in Boudh district. The other seven were also working as party members in CPI (Maoist). Apart from 10 Naxals, six to eight others have so far surrendered this year, said police sources. Sources said apart from anti-Naxal operations, the killing of red ultras in recent months has also left the middle and lower rank cadres dispirited. Two Naxals were neutralised during an exchange of fire with the security forces in Parhel Reserve Forest within Kantamal police limits in Boudh district on April 25. The killing of top Maoist cadre Dasru alias Dudu Mundari was a major set-back for the outlawed CPI (Maoist), said police sources. Dasru was the chief of KKBN division and was killed in an exchange of fire with security forces at Kamberikia forest area within Baliguda police limits on February 3. Sources said Malkangiri, also called as the cut-off Swabhiman Anchal, has not witnessed any Naxal activity in recent years but now the major challenge for the security forces is to check the movement and activities of the red ultras in Kalahandi-Kandhamal-Boudh axis. Security has been tightened ahead of elections as Naxals are using Kalahandi, Kandhamal and Boudh corridor to remain connected with the cadres from Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand.

Former Jharkhand CM Madhu Koda moves Delhi HC seeking suspension of conviction order to contest upcoming assembly polls

Former Jharkhand CM Madhu Koda moves Delhi HC seeking suspension of conviction order to contest upcoming assembly polls Former Jharkhand Chief Minister Madhu Koda has again knocked on the doors of the Delhi High Court, seeking suspension of the order of his conviction in the coal block allocation scam case. Koda's plea states, The elections in Jharkhand are expected to be conducted in November 2024, and the applicant, previously being the Chief Minister and returni MP, MLA on multiple occasions, would be deprived of the opportunity to contest these elections if the order of his conviction is not stayed. On Wednesday, during the hearing, the CBI opposed the plea and objected to the maintainability of the petition. CBI stated that the High Court had earlier, with a reasoned order, dismissed the similar plea. After hearing the parties, the Delhi HC issued a notice in the matter and fixed the hearing on the maintainability of the application for August 13, 2024. Earlier, the Delhi Court had convicted Madhu Koda in 2017 for criminal misconduct and under the Prevention of Corruption (PC) Act, sentencing him to three years of rigorous imprisonment and also imposing a fine of Rs 5 lakh. Later, in 2018, Koda was granted bail and a stay on the fine. However, the Delhi High Court had in 2020 refused the application for a stay on the order of conviction. Now, after four years and wishing to contest in the upcoming assembly elections in Jharkhand, Koda has approached the Delhi High Court seeking suspension of the order of conviction citing new factual and legal developments. Koda, in his plea, submits that the criminal appeal of the applicant has been pending since 2017, and four years have passed since the order dated May 22, 2020--but the matter has not been listed for hearing.

Rahul to Amend GST, Draft Sarna Code for Tribals

Gumla (Jharkhand): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday promised to amend the GST Act and bring out a separate Sarna religious code for tribals. He also announced that the Agniveer scheme would be abolished, if the I.N.D.I.A. bloc is voted to power and alleged that it was initiated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and not by the Army. Addressing an election rally in Jharkhands Gumla, the former Congress chief said, I.N.D.I.A. bloc will scrap the Agniveer scheme, a scheme brought by Modi and not by the Army. We do not want to differentiate between martyrs. Anyone sacrificing for the nation should be attributed martyr status, should be given pension. The BJP government implemented wrong GST schemes with five tax slabs. We will amend it and make one tax slab which will be minimum. We will reduce the tax burden on the poor, he said. He attacked the BJP-led centre for betraying tribals and alleged that Modi insulted President Droupadi Murmu. Modi insulted President Murmu, a tribal, by not inviting her to the new Parliament building inauguration and Ram Temple consecration in Ayodhya, he said. Alleging that Modi wanted to hand over Jal, Jungle, Jameen belonging to tribals to industrialists. Gandhi, speaking at another rally in Jharkhands Chaibasa, promised to make crores of people lakhpati if voted to power. Asserting that this Lok Sabha election is for saving the Constitution and the rights of tribals, poor and backward, he said I.N.D.I.A. bloc leaders were ready to sacrifice their lives to save the Constitution. Modi wants to hand over the 'Jal, Jungle, Jameen' of the tribals to 14-15 industrialists...Narendra Modi works for Adani, Ambani ...he made 22 people billionaires in his 10-year tenure... We will provide Rs.1 lakh annually to poor women if voted to power, he said. He also attacked the press for its alleged partisan role and claimed that majority of the media houses are run by industrialists. Talking about jailed former Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren, Gandhi said the BJP has put the tribal CM behind the bars but Hemant Soren chootega (he will be released) to which the crowd responded with slogans like Jail ka tala tutega, Hemant Soren chootega (jail locks will be broken, Hemant Soren will be released).

CBI and Lokayukta Complaint Filed in 800 Crore Scam Involving Mallikarjun Kharge's Son-in-law

Bengaluru: BJP's Bengaluru South District president NR Ramesh has filed a complaint with the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Karnataka Lokayukta against Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge's son-in-law Radhakrishna Doddamani and five others on Monday regarding an alleged 800 crore scam.The complaint specifically names Radhakrishna Doddamani, the Management Committee Chief in the Dr BR Ambedkar Medical College and Dr BR Ambedkar Dental College, as the primary accused. Allegations against him include corruption, cheating, creation of fake documents, forgery, and abuse of power. Also implicated in the complaint are HS Mahadeva Prasad, Dr NT Murali Mohan, and VS Kuber, along with Public Relations Officer Amanulla Khan.According to NR Ramesh, the accused are accused of soliciting hundreds of crores from ineligible students from affluent families for MBBS and BDS courses through fraudulent means.The alleged scam is said to involve over 800 crores related to admissions at Dr BR Ambedkar Medical College and Dr BR Ambedkar Dental Colleges. Despite complaints from college staff, activists, and certain members of the administrative committee to the Governor's office and the Chief Secretary of Karnataka government, no action has been taken, claims NR Ramesh. Ramesh alleges that since 2008-09, numerous irregularities have surfaced regarding admissions under the management quota.He further accuses Amanulla Khan, a fourth-grade officer appointed as the PRO, of admitting students who had failed their exams, in violation of regulations.The complaint also alleges that fake academic certificates were procured from colleges in Jharkhand and other states for students who failed Class 12, enabling their admission to MBBS and BDS courses in Karnataka.Ramesh alleges that each student paid between 1 crore to 2 crore, with additional payments for falsified marks in internal assessments. One example cited in the complaint involves an ineligible student from Bengaluru whose marksheets were allegedly obtained from a college in Jharkhand to secure admission to a medical seat in Karnataka.According to Ramesh, similar scams have been ongoing for 15 years.He further claims that Amanulla Khan is currently constructing a medical college in Tamil Nadu's Krishnagiri district for 500 crore.Regarding Radhakrishna Doddamani, Ramesh alleges that despite taking nine years to complete his MBBS course in 18 attempts, he was appointed as a professor under Mallikarjun Kharge. Doddamani is contesting as the Congress candidate from Kalaburagi, which is voting today.

Jharkhand: Rahul Gandhi promises Rs 1 lakh annually to women in poor households

RANCHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, while addressing a poll rally in Jharkhands Chaibasa on Tuesday promised to credit Rs 1 lakh every year to the bank accounts of crores of poor households in the country. Rahul also promised to increase MGNREGA wages up to Rs 400 and double the income of ASHA workers and Anganwari Sevika, if INDIA Alliance is voted to power. First, a list of poor households will be made which will mostly include people from adivasi, dalit and backward classesand then, one woman will be identified from each of those households. Rs 1 lakh will be credited to the bank accounts of all those women, said Rahul Gandhi. If BJP can give crores of rupees to a handful of people, we can make crores of poor people lakhpatis and thereby change their lives completely, he added. Extending support to the tribal population, Rahul Gandhi ensured to keep their 'jal, jungle and zameen' secured, stressig that the tribals have the first right over the resources of the country. Will remove SC-mandated 50% cap on reservation, says Rahul He also promised to ensure thir rights over 'jal, jungle and zameen' and to return their land back to them. Adivasi means who have the first rights on the land of this country. If I am calling you adivasi it means jal, jungle and zameen of this country belongs to you and hence you must have the first rights on it, said Rahul Gandhi. Therefore, you must also get your share over the wealth, natural resources and various institutions of this country, he added. We call you Adivasi, they call you Vanvasi which is kind of a derogatory word.. This is wrongvanswasi means those who live in jungles. No, you are not vanvasi, you are Adivasi.You are not those who lives in jungles, but you are those who have the first right over jal, jungle and zameen, said Rahul. They dont want your progress, they want you to keep working as their domestic help in big cities.they dont want your children to become engineers, lawyers or doctors, he added. This is the difference between BJP and INDI-Alliance We want your children to become doctors, engineers, lawyers and industrialists, Gandhi said. He further said that the BJP calls the tribals Vanwais but sell the jungles Adani thereby depriving the tribal population of their homes and forcing them to come out on the streets and beg for a living. Their intention is bad as they dont want you to progress, he said. The Congress leader also said that Adani and Narendra Modi intend to do away with the constitution so that they can rule according to their own will. The INDI-Alliance will not let it happen and are ready to sacrifice our lives for the constitution, he said. Waving a copy of the constitution from the stage, Rahul Gandhi said that this is not only a book but it is the voice of the people, and BJP wants to tear it into pieces.

Rahul Gandhi Accuses Modi of Creating 22 Billionaires, Promises to Make Millions 'Lakhpati'

Rahul Gandhi Accuses Modi of Creating 22 Billionaires, Promises to Make Millions 'Lakhpati' Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and alleged that he wanted to hand over 'Jal, Jungle, Jameen' belonging to tribals to industrialists. Addressing an election rally in Jharkhand's Chaibasa, Gandhi promised to make crores of people 'lakhpati' if voted to power. Asserting that this Lok Sabha election is for saving the Constitution and the rights of tribals, poor and backward, he said INDIA bloc leaders were ready to sacrifice their lives to save the Constitution. The former Congress president said, ''PM wants to hand over the 'Jal, Jungle, Jameen' of the tribals to 14-15 industrialists...Narendra Modi works for Adani, Ambani ...he made 22 people billionaires in his 10-year tenure... We will provide Rs 1 lakh annually to poor women if voted to power.'' ''The BJP wants to confine tribals to roles like domestic helps. They never want you to become doctors, engineers and lawyers. They want to hand over jungles to industrialists... The country is being run by 90 IAS officers and out of them, there is only one tribal who has been sidelined in Delhi. The tribal population is around 8 per cent in the country,'' he said. He also attacked the press for its alleged partisan role and claimed that majority of the media houses are run by industrialists. Gandhi promised to provide one-year apprenticeships to unemployed diploma holders and graduates. ''If voted to power, we will give apprenticeship opportunities to unemployed graduates and diploma holders and pay Rs 8,000 per month,'' he added. He announced that the INDIA bloc would compile a list of impoverished people, including those from tribal, Dalit, and OBC communities, to identify those living below the poverty line. Additionally, he pledged to provide Rs 8,500 per month to women, amounting to Rs 1 lakh annually. He also promised to scrap the contractual job system in PSUs and said reservation will be increased to above 50 per cent. ''The Congress government will assure MSP (minimum support price) for all products by farmers; MNREGA daily allowance will be raised from Rs 250 to Rs 400 and remuneration of ASHA and anganwadi workers will be doubled,'' he said. Talking about jailed former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren, Gandhi said the BJP has put the tribal CM behind the bars but ''Hemant Soren chootega (he will be released)'' to which the crowd responded with slogans like ''Jail ka tala tutega, Hemant Soren chootega (jail locks will be broken, Hemant Soren will be released). Addressing the rally, Hemant's Soren's Kalpana asked the gathering whether it was right to put her husband behind the bars before the election. ''INDIA bloc will give a befitting reply to it with 'vote ki chot (strike with vote)' on May 13, the date Singhbhum Lok Sabha seat goes to poll. Leaders including Gandhi appealed people to vote for INDIA bloc candidate Joba Manjhi of JMM, who is contesting against BJP's Geeta Kora.

ED arrests Jharkhand minister's personal secretary, house help after recovering Rs 36.23 cr cash

ED arrests Jharkhand minister's personal secretary, house help after recovering Rs 36.23 cr cash Jharkhand's rural development minister Alamgir Alam's personal secretary (PS) and the latter's house help were arrested by the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) on Tuesday, a day after Rs 36.23 crore were seized from them. Both Sanjiv Lal, PS to Jharkhand minister Alamgir Alam, and his domestic help, Jahangir Alam, were arrested by the ED after the raids and subsequent recovery of Rs 35.23 crore in cash from their premises in Jharkhand's Ranchi. Steel trunks filled with recovered cash were taken away from Alamgir Alam's residence in Ranchi on Monday night. Reportedly, the duo was questioned by the ED overnight and later taken into custody on Tuesday. Following their arrest under provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), the duo was produced in a special PMLA court and has been sent to ED remand for six days, officials said. The ED carried out fresh searches at five locations in Jharkhand's Ranchi on Tuesday, in continuation of yesterday's raid, and seized around Rs 1.5 crore from a contractor identified as Rajiv Kumar Singh. Reportedly, over Rs 10 crore was routed through him, officials said. Earlier, the ED conducted raids at multiple locations in Ranchi on May 6 in connection with its ongoing probe into a case against Virendra K Ram, a chief engineer at the Jharkhand Rural Development Department. He was arrested by the ED in February 2023 in a money laundering case linked to alleged irregularities in the implementation of some schemes. The chief engineer was nabbed by the ED after it launched multiple searches on February 21, 2023, in Ranchi, Jamshedpur, and a few other places in Jharkhand, Bihar, and Delhi. Earlier on Monday morning, the ED raided the premises of both Sanjiv Lal and his domestic help Alamgir Alam in Ranchi and has so far recovered Rs 35.23 crore cash from them. In 2019, a huge amount of cash was recovered from one of his subordinates. Later, the ED took over the case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. (ANI)

PM Modi accuses YSRC & Congress of corruption

RAJAMAHENDRAVARAM/ANAKAPELLE: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday launched a scathing attack on the YSRC and Congress, accusing them of indulging in rampant corruption. Speaking at NDAs election rallies at Vemagiri in Rajamahendravaram and Rajupalem in Anakapalle on Monday, Modi said both parties are cut from the same cloth. Citing the seizure of mountains of cash at the house of a servant of the personal secretary of Jharkhand Rural Development minister and Congress leader Alamgir Alam, the Prime Minister wondered why such persons were close to the Congress first family. He further quipped, They (Congress) have turned the workers house a godown of corruption. Pointing out that this is not the first time such a huge cash haul has been reported, Modi recalled, Earlier also a big sum of cash was seized at an MPs residence in Jharkhand. The catch was so huge, even machines were tired of counting. Demanding to know if the money was stacked in the godown to supply it, he said, The country wants to know from Congress Shehzada (referring to Rahul Gandhi), if the partys first family has established warehouses of black money. PM Modi leads grand procession in Ayodhya amidst saffron sea of supporters PM Narendra Modi and JSP chief Pawan Kalyan during Praja Galam meeting | Express YSRC can manage corruption, not finances: PM Stating that he was seeking legal consultations on returning the stolen money to the rightful owners, Modi explained, As of now, the ED (Enforcement Directorate) has only caught hold of property worth `1.15 lakh crore. But if you sum all of these up, it accounts for many crores of rupees. Hence, I am consulting with legal experts to try and get back peoples money that was stolen. Asserting that it is Modis guarantee that no poor person will be affected, he said `17,000 crore has already been returned to the rightful owners. Training his guns on the ruling YSRC in Andhra Pradesh, the Prime Minister alleged, The government wanted to establish three capitals with a motive of looting the State, but could not as the exchequer was empty. YSRC can manage corruption, but not finances. Further, Modi said the YSRC had an opportunity to prove its mettle for five years, but it wasted the time and also let the States potential go to waste. When Chandrababu Naidu was in power, the State was at the peak of its league. But the YSRC government derailed all that progress. Instead of working for the welfare of the people, the YSRC drowned the State in debt, Modi claimed. He reiterated, Be it anywhere, only NDA can guarantee welfare. Stating that the youth of Andhra Pradesh are known for their technological skills and acumen, Modi said the State should grow along with the country. However, under the present regime, development has been zero and corruption has been 100%, he criticised the ruling YSRC. Cautioning people to be wary of the Congress, he remarked, Till 10 years ago, all that the country saw was scams. Emphasising that development would be possible only with a double-engine NDA government, he asserted that the State will script a new chapter in growth after June 4. Stating that the NDAs mantra is reform, perform, and transform, Modi said, Your right vote will transform problems into opportunities. Questioning the YSRC governments credibility, Modi sought to know how its promise of total prohibition became a liquor business run by the government forming syndicates. Liquor, sand, and land mafia rule the roost in the State, he alleged. Elaborating on the Centres contribution to the development of the State, he blamed the YSRC government for delaying the Polavaram project. The Prime Minister said though the Centre released `15,000 crore, the State government could not complete the irrigation project. It has curtailed the lifeline of the State, he said. Claiming that the farmers of the State were struggling for proper irrigation, and werent even receiving MSP (Minimum Support Price) for paddy, Modi promised that after June 4, the NDA government in the State will address all these problems. Referring to the Uttarandhra Sujjala Sravanthi Project, Modi said Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy did not continue the projects taken up by his father and former Chief Minister YS Rajasekhara Reddy. Modi also found fault with the YSRC government for not distributing even half of the total 24 lakh houses allocated under the PM Awas Yojana. Further, he assured good days for sugarcane farmers and fisherfolk under the NDA government in the coming days. While TDP general secretary Nara Lokesh, Jana Sena president Pawan Kalyan and BJP State unit chief D Purandeswari were present in Rajahmundry during PM Modis public address, TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu and JSP secretary general Nagendra Babu attended the meeting in Anakapalle. The Prime Minister left soon after his public address, before Naidu began his speech. Muslims now stand with BJP; understood Congress, INDIA bloc using them as pawns: PM Modi

GST enhances tax buoyancy to 1.22: Nirmala Sitharaman

NEW DELHI: The goods and services tax (GST) has enhanced tax buoyancy to 1.22 from 0.72 pre-GST, leading to increased revenue for states post the five-year compensation period, finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman tweeted on Monday. GST has improved tax buoyancy from 0.72 (pre-GST) to 1.22 (2018-23). Despite compensation ending, state revenues remain buoyant at 1.15. Without GST, states revenue from subsumed taxes from FY19 to FY24 would have been Rs 37.5 lakh crore. With GST, states actual revenue amounted to Rs 46.56 lakh crore, Sitharaman said. Even with the GST rate below the revenue neutral rate and COVID-19 impacting revenues, GST collections as a percentage of GDP have returned to pre-GST levels, showcasing that the Centre and states, by improving tax administration, can generate similar revenue with reduced taxpayer burden, the Minister stated. It is a myth that all GST collections are pocketed by the Centre. GST contributes significantly to state revenues. States receive 100% of SGST collected in that state, nearly 50% of IGST (i.e. on inter-state trade). A significant portion of CGST, i.e. 42% is devolved to the states based on the Finance Commissions recommendations, Sitharaman added. The minister highlighted that reflecting a pro-poor stance, the effective weighted average GST rate has steadily decreased since 2017. Despite a suggested Revenue Neutral Rate of 15.3%, the actual rate was 14.4% in 2017, dropping further to 11.6% in 2019. GST lowered taxes on many essential items compared to pre-GST rates. Common items like hair oil and soaps saw tax cut from 28% to 18%. Electrical appliances taxed at 12% v/s 31.5% before. Movie tickets were taxed lower, too. Further tax rate rationalization has been done since 2017. National Anti-profiteering Authority ensured that companies passed the benefits to the consumers, she wrote. GST consolidated 17 taxes and 13 cesses into a simplified 5-tier structure, streamlining the tax system. Sanjaya Mishra first president of GSTAT NEW DELHI: Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday administered the oath of Justice (Retd) Sanjaya Kumar Mishra as the inaugural President of the GST Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT), commencing the functionality of the tribunal. Mishras appointment signifies the commencement of operations for the GSTAT, a vital entity for settling GST-related disputes. Union Minister for Finance and Corporate Affairs Nirmala Sitharaman administered the oath of integrity and secrecy to Justice (Retd.) Sanjaya Kumar Mishra as the President of the GST Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT), in New Delhi, today, the government statement said. Mishra, a former Chief Justice of the Jharkhand HC, was selected by a Search-cum-Selection Committee led by the Chief Justice of India. ENS
