<h1>State leaders accuse prime minister of falsely claiming GST reform credit, demand repayment of alleged excess tax collections</h1> A state chief minister publicly accused the prime minister of falsely claiming credit for recent GST reforms, alleging prior over-collection of tax and deceptive conduct, and demanded reversal or restitution of excess collections. A state IT minister described the reforms as belated, argued they caused harm to MSMEs and employment over eight years, and criticized government publicity of the changes as political theatricality. The statements raise political accountability and administrative law issues regarding tax policy implementation, retrospective relief, and potential demands for restitution or legislative review, but no formal legal action or adjudication is referenced.
