Puri takes dig at Congress for Karnataka fuel price hike

The minister said after not fulfilling the promise of transferring Rs 8,500/month to a woman of each family, Congress-governed Karnataka had saddled people with the burden of paying Rs 3/litre more for petrol and diesel. Minister Puri said with this increase, petrol in Karnataka was now Rs 8.2/litre more expensive than BJP-run govts in Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat.
