Bill empowers civic body to levy fee on advertisement and impose entertainment tax
Both the Houses of the Karnataka Legislature on Thursday passed the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike Bill, 2020, to give a separate law for the city corporation that ensures a new municipal governance, increases the number of wards from 198 to 243 and empowers it to levy a fee on advertisement and impose entertainment tax.
The Bill was passed amidst boycott of the session by the principal Opposition Congress and the absence of JD (S) members. Opposition members argued that it was passed without due consultation.
