Congress won Karnataka by promising 5 things: [1] GRUHA JYOTHI: 200 units of free electricity per month to every household. [2] GRUHA LAKSHMI SCHEME: ₹2,000/month to every woman head of household. [3] UCHITA PRAYANA: Free bus travel for all women across the state of Karnataka. [4] YUVA NIDHI: ₹3,000/month for unemployed graduates & ₹1,500/month for unemployed diploma holders. [5] ANNA BHAGYA: Free 10 kg of rice per person per month to BPL families. This will cost 50,000 Crore. Before you gasp, understand: That Congress basically copied AAP's strategy from Delhi. With more elections on the way, the freebie political strategy will become more extravagant. Politicians will make bigger and better promises. If history teaches us anything, it is that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Someone always pays the tab. In this case, that 'someone' is the one who is able to read and understand this tweet-- a middle class tax paying Indian, waiting for better days.
