Karuna: Jaya hasn't explained reason for supporting fuel hike

May 30, 2012 12:44

This is what Karunanidhi said on Jayalalithaa during the fuel hike protest rally this morning. "The Centre had at least explained the reason for the fuel
price hike but Jayalalithaa had not come out with the genuine reason," he said.
Jayalalithaa had justified the hike, saying government was forced to take the step due to the weak financial situation of the loss-making state government undertakings.

The DMK chief also attacked her for spending "huge" taxpayer money on newspaper advertisements following completion of one year in office. Besides Karunanidhi, senior party leaders, his son and DMK treasurer MK Stalin and general secretary K Anbazhagan led the protests elsewhere in the state.
