Suggest that duty be levied on sin goods to compensate for revenue loss

At a consultative meeting in the capital, ahead of the GST Council's meeting on September 3-4, these states supported the Centre's proposal for rationalisation. However, they stressed that the benefits of lower rates should be passed on to the common man.
