Hassan, Nov 3: Former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda on Saturday alleged that Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa indulged in horse-trading to form BJP-led government in Karnataka for which a case should be registered against him.

"Karnataka government in the leadership of Yediyurappa came to power because of many dirty malpractices. A case should be registered against him the way it happened in Uttarakhand horse-trading case," the JD(S) leader told ANI here.

Gowda was reacting to an audio-tape in which the Chief Minister was purportedly heard saying that he and BJP president Amit Shah was involved were involved in the resignation 17 Congress-JD(S) government.

The Congress-JD(S) MLAs were disqualified by the then Assembly Speaker KR Ramesh Kumar, bringing down the HD Kumaraswamy government in July this year.

Congress has handed over a written complaint to Governor Vajubhai Vala and said that it will take the matter to President Ram Nath Kovind.

Meanwhile, Congress leader Dinesh Gundu Rao on Sunday said that the party will submit the audio-tape in the Supreme Court which is hearing a case of the 17 Congress-JD(S) MLAs.

Yediyurappa should be sentenced jail term for his irregularities and misuse of power.  Its seems that jail is the best and suitable place for him.  Jail is made for him and he is made for jail. I also hope that Yedi was in jail for hyears in his last life and hence jail is not willing to be him away from it.   Wecome Yedi in jail.  Wish you all the best.

Bengaluru, Apr 1: The price of petrol and diesel will go up by Rs 1.60 and Rs 1.59 per litre, respectively, from Wednesday. This is in line with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa’s decision to hike the rate of tax on petrol from 32% to 35% and diesel from 21% to 24%.

He had announced this in his March 5 Budget for 2020-21 fiscal. At present, a litre of petrol costs Rs 71.97 and diesel Rs 64.41 in Bengaluru.

The government decided to roll out the hike from Tuesday midnight going into Wednesday, April 1, after briefly considering a postponement in view of the COVID-19 crisis. 

Finance Secretary (Budget & Resources) Ekroop Caur confirmed to DH that the hike will be rolled out. 

The 3% hike on fuel tax was a key resource mobilisation measure that Yediyurappa announced in his Budget. The hike is expected to fetch the government Rs 1,500 crore. 

Yediyurappa had also announced a 6% additional excise duty on Indian Made Liquor (IML), which could help the government mop up Rs 1,200 crore. However, the sale of liquor has been prohibited during the lockdown period. Plus, hiking fuel prices during the lockdown will not hit citizens very hard.
