KTR flays Congress leadership over price hikes and strange taxes

Pointing out the 15 percent increase in RTC ticket prices in Karnataka and the introduction of a toilet tax in Himachal Pradesh, he criticized the Congress for misleading the public with false promises only to impose additional financial burdens on them.

Hyderabad: Coming down heavily on the Congress party governments in State, the BRS Working President on Saturday lashed out at the Congress leadership for their recent decisions, which he claims have betrayed the trust of their voters. Highlighting the 15 percent RTC ticket price hike in Karnataka and the imposition of a toilet tax in Himachal Pradesh, he accused the Congress of deceiving the public with false promises and then burdening them with additional costs.

“The Congress Guarantees are nothing but scams,” he stated. “First, they fool everyone with these schemes to steal your votes, and then they trample the common people with price hikes and additional taxes.”
