Dhanbad traders to protest civic body taxes
'Corporation backtracking on promise of trade license for three months during lockdown'
Coal town traders are planning a phase wise protest against the multitude of taxes levied by Dhanbad Municipal Corporation at a time of economic distress due to lack of any business activities during the state-wide partial lockdown.
The traders are against the prerequisite of having a holding tax receipt for issuance of a trade licence fee by the DMC. They claimed that the civic body was going back on its promise of issuing trade licenses for three months to all applicants irrespective of a holding tax submission receipt.
