Before leaving for New Delhi, Baghel had said, “I am going to Delhi to have a meeting with the Home Minister. There are a lot of issues in Chhattisgarh that I have to discuss. One of them is the GST issue.
If we get that money, we will work for the development of Naxal-prone areas. The other issue is that money has been deducted from our state’s part for the CRPF There are more such issues that I will hold discussions on.
