Karnataka Chief Minister Jabs Centre Over Tax-Sharing

In the latest attack aimed at the Centre, Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah has questioned the tax-sharing formula. Siddaramaiah posted on social media, "It has been reported that the central NDA government is preparing to recommend to the Finance Commission to lower the state's tax share from 41 percent to 40 percent." He asserted that the state government has the strength and resolve to counter such oppressive measures and that he strongly believes the people of Karnataka see this "injustice" for what it is.
