NEW DELHI: The Uttar Pradesh government announced Tuesday morning that the film The Kerala Story will be given the status of “tax-free” in the state.
In a tweet Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath wrote, “The Kerala Story will be made tax-free in Uttar Pradesh.”
The move by the UP Government to make The Kerala Story tax-free comes a day after West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee ordered a ban on the film in the state, citing a threat to law and order. Meanwhile, Madhya Pradesh has also declared Kerala movie tax free.
