Feroz Shah Kotla stadium, is one of the oldest stadium in the country after Edenes, which is still functioning properly, although the tax is been pending since several years. The due amount was pointed out by the officials of RTI, hence, another RTI application has been issued to know the latest status of the pending amount.
A total amount of Rs 8,67,52,780 is pending and south corporation had sent a final notice to DDCA for clearing property tax in January. The RTI official wanted to know whether the notice had been issued already and whether the DDCA had paid the dues.
According to reports, RTI commented that High Court has restrained the SDMC from taking any coercive action against the DDCA for not paying the dues.
