Demand to reduce general water tax
It is demanded that the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) should reduce water tax from the people who do not have NMC water connection or else NMC will have to face protest, said ex-corporator and NCP leader, Vedprakash Arya.
Currently NMC charges 40% of tax from general tax payers.
15 % of waster tax was being collected from the taxpayers by NMC. However, the tax has increased to 40% along with steep hike in water tariff in 2009. Although the water tariff was reduced but the general water tax was not changed.
The date shows that NMC, 1,13,442 of total 4,71,442 property tax payers are paying the high general water tax.
