Coimbatore: In a drive against property tax evasion, Coimbatore Corporation on Wednesday disconnected two bulk water supply connections to a major educational institution group on Avanashi Road. According to Corporation sources, the group had to pay property tax arrears of over Rs 2.84 crore since 2001.
The Corporation had issued number of reminders and had served notices. The group which has three bulk water supply connections also has a hospital. The Corporation authorities spared the bulk water supply connection to the hospital and disconnected the remaining two. Corporation sources said that the drive against property tax evasion would be stepped up.
