The Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman made some serious allegations against the Congress led erstwhile UPA government last week. While expressing the governmentâs inability to reduce taxes/duties and the price of fuels like petrol and diesel, she told reporters that the government of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, is today paying for the oil price reduction done by the UPA in 2012-13. Look at their trickery she said, noting that the previous government had cut taxes on fuels, but left the current government with oil bonds. The use of the word trickery is serious and challenges the very integrity of the government that issued the bonds. In this episode of the Business Tit-Bits, our Business Editor Mr Akhilesh Bhargava shares his take on the matter.
