Reiterating its demand for greater share of GST devolution to Karnataka, the Congress on Saturday released a “white paper” to highlight what it termed as ‘’injustice’’ being rendered by the Centre to the State.
Addressing a press conference in the city, the KPCC spokesperson M. Lakshmana said that Karnataka was the backbone of the emerging growth story of India and was one of the drivers of the nation’s economy.
He said the State’s contribution under corporate and other taxes was to the tune of ₹2.25 lakh crore for 2023-24 against which only ₹37,252 crore was expected by way of tax devolution.
