Rejecting claims by the Karnataka government of discrimination in sharing central taxes, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said the allegations are patently wrong and mischievous. The Minister, while addressing a conference in Parliament premises said, "There are factual errors, false monetary claims, misleading statements, and selective mention of certain losses allegedly suffered without mentioning the gains that have accrued to the state (Karnataka) in the 15th Finance Commission period."
