The state thus may not benefit much with the uniform tax policy. Sardinha claims that he has already conveyed to union finance minister Yeshwant Sinha that the uniform sales tax policy is not in the interest of Goa. Goa is one of the few states like Delhi having lowest tax structure due to its limited market, failing which it is feared that the trend of travelling across Karnataka or Maharashtra for marketing would be the easy option for any Goan, considering its small size. The local market would then be totally upset. Sardinha appears to have decided to fight its case as he has no hopes of the central BJP leaders helping him simply because the local BJP are partners in his coalition government.
Money has no party.
