Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy has announced that the prices of petrol, diesel in the State will be reduced by Rs 2. He said that the State has cut Rs 2 from the cess it was charging, to help the people of Karnataka. But rubbishing this as a bogus move, BJP State President Yeddyurappa claimed that Kumaraswamy government had increased the cess by Rs 1.52 when they came to power and now reducing it by Rs 2 means that only 0.46 paise has been reduced. Is HD Kumaraswamy cheating the people by misinforming them?
