‘Why do CMs hold Finance portfolio?’
The Hindu
Stating that Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa has been “misled” by the Finance Department officials, ruling party member A.H. Vishwanath said the 2021-22 Budget contains nothing, and that the statistics of the last 10 years Budget have been juggled around.
“Siddaramaiah, H.D. Kumaraswamy or Mr. Yediyurappa, who have so far held the Finance portfolio and presented many Budgets, are not economists. There has to be a separate Minister for Finance,” Mr. Vishwanath said in the Legislative Council much to the delight of the Opposition benches.
