Bengal Counters Centre's Tax Devolution Claims with ₹8 Trillion

The government of Bengal says it has contributed a lot of money to the country's taxes.

They are arguing with the central government about how much money Bengal is getting back.

The central government says it has given Bengal its fair share of money from taxes.

Bengal's advisor, Amit Mitra, says the central government has not released the funds it owes to Bengal.

A local business group in Bengal has committed significant investments in the state's steel sector.

This situation involves who gets how much money and what it's used for.
