WCO Chief in India - Goes back unnoticed
THE WCO Secretary General Kunio Mikuriya was in India for two days and the Revenue Department failed to arrange a meeting for him with the Finance Minister. He was in Bangladesh before flying into Delhi and in Dhaka he met Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, while in India he could not get an appointment with our FM. This is a real sad state of affairs in the Revenue Department and CBEC. Even top officers of the CBEC were not aware of the visit of the WCO Chief. The officers who shield the FM from meeting even top dignitaries like the WCO chief are actually doing a great disservice to the nation.
