Movement against levying of Property Tax

Aam Aadmi Party will meet delegation on 26th

Ludhiana(Rector Kathuria and SK Gogna):The efforts of the Aam Aadmi Party have borne fruit with the Municipal Corporation Zone A Commissioner deputing a delegation of Deputy Directors of Local Bodies to hear the objections which have been raised against imposition of Property Tax.  A meeting of the Aam Aadmi Party members with the delegation will take place on the 26th of this month. 
It is to be noted that protest against the proposed Property Tax became a big issue when the Aam Aadmi Party raised objections to it and submitted a memorandum along with starting a signature campaign in which thousands of citizens of the district participated. “The new property tax will be an additional huge burden on the shoulders of the common man who is already suffering greatly due to high inflation” said Party District Convenor Mr. Harjot Singh. 
The Aam Aadmi Party Awareness campaign resulted in 122 individuals also filing objections to the Property tax in the last 5 days after the party made it an issue of concern for the aam aadmi. AAP will be putting up the perspective of the common man in front of the delegation giving a voice to some serious issues like misuse of already collected funds and rampant corruption which need to be controlled rather than imposition of the new tax. Copies of the signatures collected will also be handed over to the delegation. 
“We will strongly urge the government to revoke its decision on levying of Property tax but if the delegation dismisses all our objections and does not pay serious attention to revoking this new taxation, the Aam Aadmi Party will launch a massive campaign in the city”, said Mr. Balbir Aggarwal, District Secretary.                                                       ====
