Siddaramaiah blames BJP for power tariff hikes, promises meeting to work out solution
Meeting delegations from various industry associations, the CM blamed the previous BJP regime for leaving the state in a sea of debt. His Congress regime had inherited Rs 11,000 crore in dues the previous government owed to electricity supply companies (Escoms). This had been a result of fiscal indiscipline of the BJP government, Siddaramaiah said.
