Oppn. walks out of Assembly seeking cut on local levy
The Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) Opposition walked out of the Assembly on Tuesday, accusing the Centre and State Governments of fuel “tax terrorism”.
The UDF dared the Government to forsake the State levy on fuel to cushion the fallout of spiralling petrol, diesel and cooking gas prices.
Congress legislator Shafi Parambil moved an adjournment motion, seeking the leave of the House to discuss the ripple effect of soaring fuel prices on household budgets, transport and freight sector and essential commodities.
