In a series of citizen-friendly decisions, the Municipal Corporation (MC) today waived garbage tax for the fiscal 2025–26 and abolished paid parking in three sectors.
The decisions were taken during a General House meeting chaired by Mayor Kulbhushan Goyal and attended by MLA Chander Mohan, MC Commissioner RK Singh, Joint Commissioner Gaurav Chauhan, councillors and officials of the civic body.
The House unanimously decided to end paid parking in Sectors 8, 9 and 10 as the contractor had failed to deposit dues of around Rs 1.25 crore. The Mayor issued directions for immediate recovery of the dues, while the MC Commissioner warned that an FIR would be registered if the payment was not made. Once the contract ends on November 10, all parking zones in the three sectors will be made free.
