The authorities at Amritsar's Golden Temple have claimed they paid â¹2 crore as Goods and Services Tax (GST) for purchasing food items for langar over a period of 7 months. This comes even as Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said that no GST was imposed on food in langar, a free community kitchen. The gurdwara authorities had dismissed Jaitley's claims.
