Seeking vacation of the interim protection - constitutional validity of Sections 69 and 132 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 - case of petitioner is that the power to arrest and prosecute are not ancillary and/or incidental to the power to levy and collect goods and services tax - Even if Sections 69 and 132 of the Act could not have been enacted in pursuance to power under Article 246A, they could have been enacted under Entry 1 of List III, as laying down of a crime and providing for its punishment is ‘criminal law’.
