The Tamil Nadu government can earn revenue of Rs 5,000 crore if inter-state trucks ferrying M-sand and blue metal are accounted properly, said All M-Sand and River Sand Lorry Owner’s Federation.
In a press release on Monday, the federation said that about 700 overloaded trucks from Krishnagiri are carrying M-Sand and blue metal without transit passes, e-way bill and GST bills to Bengaluru on a daily basis.
Similarly, 800 overloaded lorries are ferrying similar materials from the southern districts to Kerala in the absence of transit pass, e-way bill and GST bills everyday, the release stated.
Pointing out that it is causing a huge lose to the state government’s exchequer, the federation, sought the state government’s intervention over the issue such that it could generate revenue of Rs 5,000 crore to the state government.
