MySuru: Residents from City Heritage who have failed to pay their water bills, if everything goes according to plan, expect a little help from the steep fine they have to pay.
MySuru City Corporation (MCC) plans to revise its punishment policy, where instead of making interest in contributions every month, the Kias body has proposed to impose a monthly interest of only 1% in unpaid contributions.
MCC has submitted a proposal to the government, and is waiting for his assumption.
MCC is currently wrestling with lack of acute funds, funds that really need to be resolved by various development projects.
Because the collecting of unpaid contributions will help fill the coffers, the Civic Agency has adopted a multi-branch strategy to persuade residents to resolve extraordinary bills.
The new proposal by MCC approached the heel of the state government rejected previous plans to impose interest in contributions.
“Our idea is to help residents who owe the large amount of MCC in unpaid contributions.
We will make a decision on this issue at the MCC Board meeting.
Mysuru MP and the district ministers aired by the district together suggest that we change the existing system.
But for any changes in the policy to be implemented, the government must first provide a nod, “said Mysuru Mayor Sunani Palanethra.MC said that payment owed to water bills reached Rs 146 Crore, which had stacked the interests of Rs 73 Crore.
While 270 million liters of water are supplied to the population of the city of Mysuru every day, only 160 million liters are taken into account, while the remaining water is used through illegal connections.
A recent survey by Water Vani officials Vilas worked to set the number of houses provided by water without meters at 49,950.
The MCC authorities say that, if the state government nodded for new policies, it will come into force since 2022.
-23 fiscal years.
MPmysu MP Pratap Sime is among those who support the neglect of interest in unpaid contributions.
However, the state government seems to vary with MP on this problem.
On the other hand, residents want MCC to streamline tax collection, which they believe will help the Kiwanan body reach its income target.
“Unpaid contributions, whether it was a property tax, electricity bill, et al, raises a big challenge for MCC.
Given that only one part of the people in Mysuru who pay their bills regularly, MCC must ensure that every household falls in line , “said Prashanth Nagar Resident Sundar Raj.
