Amit Shah misleading people on UPA govt contributions: Siddaramaiah

Bengaluru, Jan 18 (UNI) Former Karnataka Chief Minister and leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah on Monday lashing out at Union Home Minister Amit Shah said he lied and misleading the people on the contribution of UPA government.
Speaking to newsmen here, he said that Amit Shah, is a well known Gujarati businessman and has well versed skill in misleading the people. Every time both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister visit the state making complete lies on the UPA achievements in order to gain their popularity.
Stating that first of all, the central government is not giving the state’s share which is the right as Karnataka contributes an estimated Rs 2,20,000 crore to the central government every year through taxes. As per the recommendations of the Finance Commission, the central government should return 42 per cent of that tax money to the State. But during the BJP regime, we have never received 42 per cent of share eligible.
