GST queries: Shhh! No more chirping over GST issues on Twitter - The Economic Times

“It was meant to address multiple queries on real-time basis by way of handholding,” said an official aware of the development. “Now that phase is over — hence this step.” The government always maintained that the tweets had no legal standing and were issued as guidance but taxpayers came to rely on them to adopt tax positions that sometimes resulted in penalties. Subsequently, industry has demanded the withdrawal of those penalties.
 
What was not said: "Our resources are better spent on strengthening our IT Cell on Twitter. Solving people's problems is not why BJP joined twitter in the first place. We joined so that we can create more issues."
