Non-Government Organisation highlights problems faced by Guwahatians

GUWAHATI: A Non-Government Organisation (NGO) named Save Guwahati Build Guwahati raised several concerns regarding the problems faced by the Guwahatians through a press conference on Saturday. Pointing out the municipal taxes, the representatives expressed their concern over the moral right of the municipal corporation to increase taxes without resolving existing issues.

They also questioned the effectiveness of the municipal council in addressing the failure of the corporation to regularize the water supply. They criticized the steep 371 per cent hike in taxes under the pretext of providing water, without even providing the same. They also raised concerns about the use of prepaid electrical meters, which they believe keep customers in the dark emphasizing on providing essential facilities to the city’s residents.
