The GoM recently had its first meeting in which over 25 lose ends of the portal were identified that had caused the crashing of the website.

The high powered group of ministers is led by the Bihar Deputy CM Sushil Modi, along with officials from the GST council and GSTN.

The group of ministers’ panel informed that the government is well aware of the concerns pertaining to the GSTN and it being the biggest such system in the world, things are likely to be better with a dedicated team in place.
