Slum dwellers are neither spared from property tax!

1 Comment Sub Category:Uncategorized Posted On: Dec 27, 2011

Mumbai is the only city traced till now which does not even spare the slum dwellers from paying property or any such taxes!

“Is it that necessary to collect property tax for slum dwellers?” This sounds pathetic, indeed!

There are no traces as to why the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is levying tax burden on these poor slum dwellers.

Even today with the infrastructure splendidly growing, technology improving the slums lack basic civic facilities like; sanitation, proper drinking water supply.

However in reply to the same the BMC Commissioner replied saying that law entails them to tax every structure in the society and moreover the municipal department is ready to take this issue into topic to bear justice!
