    No Wonder. Karnataka's rich MLAs can bankroll the entire bhaghya they offered in the last election and are putting into effect now, without having to rely on the state budget. Give the other people a break by not raising taxes. The MLAs will get a big tax break at the time of filing their annual tax returns.
