Kerala won’t reduce tax, then what Is the fun in asking the Centre to reduce tax?
Finance Minister Thomas Issac saying that the state government will not reduce tax on petrol and diesel, is deplorable. The Centre has reduced Rs 2.5 per litre on petrol and diesel. It is then obligatory for State Government to bring down price proportionately. Instead of doing this, the F M saying that the Centre first reduce the full amount it hiked and the state government would then think about reducing tax, is ridiculous.
If thirteen states of India could adhere to the words of Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley asking the state governments to reduce Rs 2.5/litre of VAT, the Kerala Government that is determined to set everything right, also should reduce the fuel tax.
