‘Sabarmati Report’ to be tax free: CM

Panaji: Goa govt is considering making ‘The Sabarmati Report’, directed by Dheeraj Sarna, tax-free.

“The movie is based on a true story on the train burning incident in Godhra in 2002 and the facts must reach the people. We will issue a notification in a few days declaring the movie tax-free,” chief minister Pramod Sawant said on Friday.

The move follows six other BJP-governed states — Rajasthan, Haryana, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, UP and Gujarat — that gave tax-free status to movie, which released in theatres last week.
