MC House reject mayor’s proposal of reducing garbage charges for industries
The general house of the Chandigarh municipal corporation on Tuesday rejected city mayor Anup Gupta’s proposal of reducing the garbage charges for the industrial areas, terming the proposal as ‘someone’s personal interest’. The collection of garbage cess, linked with property tax, should be rolled back or the garbage cess may be charged at a fixed rate of ₹200 per month from the industrial units.” After the joint forum’s demand, the mayor had tabled an agenda to reduce the charges further to ₹150 - ₹300, depending on the size of the industrial units. If the mayor wishes to slash garbage charges for industrial units, a new agenda should be placed in the next house with inclusion of slashing charges for UT residential as well as commercial areas,” said BJP councillor Saurabh Joshi. Mayor Anup Gupta said, “The interest rate on the pending dues will be slashed from 24% to 10% while the taxi stand operators will have to clear their dues before March 31, 2024, otherwise they will be penalised with the existing interest rate and the stand will be e-auctioned from April 1, 2024.” At present, 57 defaulting private taxi stand operators owe over ₹5.44 crore long-pending ground fees to the civic body.
