MySuru: Opposition Leader Siddaramaiiah on Friday said MPs from Karnataka, including the Nirmala Union Finance Minister Sitharaman did not have the courage to fight for the state to share in the central government project by 50%.
“The tax share from the center to Karnataka has decreased.
Previously, for development projects, central grants were 75% to 80% of the estimated project costs, and the share of the country was around 20% to 25%.
But in the current situation, the state must share 50% From the project costs.
This will weigh on the state.
BJP parliamentarians from the country have failed to oppose it, “he said.
He said the center would stop paying GST compensation to the country from June this year.
“This will lead to the RS 20 Lakh Crore deficit to the state.
I have asked the center to continue compensation for five years, but no selected representatives have raised this problem .
Center remains silent on this issue.
25 BJP MPs who have been out of the country does not have the guts to talk to Narendra Modi to the injustices that were found to the state by the central government, “he said.
“The center, which has been released from the company’s corporate tax, has deceived the poor.
As a small and medium industries have been denied compensation for its resurrection, the unemployment rate has increased in the country,” he added.
