House tax: Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon to resolve objections

GURGAON: The Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon has finally decided to deal with the over 50,000 objections raised by the residents regarding house tax, in a time bound manner. Starting July 23, the municipal corporation will hold meetings every day in which they will invite those who have filed objections and will resolve it. This decision was taken at a meeting held between the MCG officials and the ward councillors on Thursday.
 


"We plan to resolve close to 100 cases every day and will take up the cases ward wise and colony wise. It's going to be a mammoth task and we are not sure how many months it is going to take to resolve all the 50,000 objections filed. Most of the objections are related to wrong calculation, incorrect name and area. We will publish a list of cases that will be taken up each day so that the residents know when their case would come up for hearing. The zonal taxation officer as well as the executive and junior engineers will be present in the daily hearings so that the objections can be resolved smoothly," Veena Hooda, joint commissioner, Zone-1 of MCG.
 


On July 23, cases related to areas like Daulatabad village, Daulatabad industrial area, Rajendra Park, Surat Nagar Phase I will be taken up.
