INDIA TODAY LIVE: Karnataka Govt Clears Bill To Tax Temples | Siddaramaiah News LIVE |Karnataka News

The Karnataka government on Wednesday passed the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowment bill in the Assembly. The bill mandates that the government will collect 10 per cent of the income of temples that have revenue of more than Rs 1 crore. The BJP targeted the Congress-led Karnataka government over this bill, alleging that the state government is involved in "anti-Hindu policies" and there is bound to be misuse of the funds. BJP's Karnataka unit president Vijayendra Yediyurappa, in a post on X, said that the Congress government was trying to fill its "empty coffers" through this bill. The BJP leader further asked why the state government was only collecting revenue from Hindu temples and not other religious structures. #karnataka #karnatakanews #siddaramaiahgovernment #dkshivakumar #indiatoday #indiatodaylive Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
