Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda today said his government would look into the possibilities of reducing cess on petrol after the June 11 biennial elections to the state Legislative Council.

"I will look into the possibilities of reducing cess on petrol soon after the elections to the legislative council. For now, I can't comment on the issue due to model code of conduct," he told reporters.

The statement comes in the wake of state party spokesperson C T Ravi urging Gowda to emulate BJP Government in neighbouring Goa in reducing cess on petrol to reduce the burden on the commonman imposed by the recent steepest ever hike of Rs 7.50 per litre.

Strongly condemning the Central Government for the hike in petrol price, Gowda said if the UPA did not address the issue, Chief Ministers and Ministers would have to use cycles for official work.

"During UPA tenure, the hike in petroleum products has been effected times. The UPA should address the issue as soon as possible," he added.

Gowda said the latest hike had added to the woes of the common people, already hit by rising inflation.

"The UPA government should immediately withdraw the steep petrol hike," he added.
