The trick: Blames one cause

It pins a complex outcome on one cause (known as oversimplified cause).

"ಇಷ್ಟೊಂದೆಲ್ಲ ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಮಾಡಿದ್ರೆ private ನವರ ಕಥೆ ಏನು? ಬದಲಾವಣೆ ತರೋಣ ಅನ್ನೋದು ನಾವೇ ಬಿಡಲ್ಲ."

Reducing complex debates over education policy and private sector dynamics to simple public hypocrisy ignores administrative and structural criticisms.
