The members of Communist Party of India (CPI), Mysuru district committee joined the Statewide agitation in Mysuru demanding immediate release of State’s share in tax and drought relief by the Centre.
Condemning what it called “injustice” done by the Centre against Karnataka on the sharing of tax, they alleged that the Centre was discriminating with the State on tax sharing. The State’s share in GST, other taxes and drought assistance must be released immediately, they demanded.
While questioning the silence of the State MPs on the issue, the CPI members staged a demonstration at the circle near Metropole Hotel here on Monday, February 12.
