| J&K AP welcomes LG assurance on Property Tax | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Oct 19: Welcoming Lt Governor Manoj Sinha’s assurance that no property tax would be imposed in the Union Territory (UT), Apni Party (AP) on Monday afternoon said J&K need special fiscal stimulus package.
In a statement issued here this afternoon, Spokesman for the AP Javid Baig said that the remarks have allayed the mounting apprehensions among the people of J&K.
“AP president Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari had already raised this critical issue with the top leadership in the country and sought its intervention,” he added.
Baig said that the people of Jammu and Kashmir are reeling under tremendous economic distress and levying property tax would have added to their fiscal burden.
“Need of the hour is that the people in J&K should be provided with special stimulus packages by the union government covering all important financial sectors in view of the situation that emerged here after August 2019. The prevailing Pandemic has also hugely impacted J&K’s economic conditions,” Baig remarked.
He also welcomed the Lt Governor’s announcement that the J&K government is mulling to enhance the honorarium of Panchayat representatives in coming days.
“The Panchayat representatives are an important part of a grassroots level democratic set up. Enhancing their honorarium would enable them to perform their duties in a better manner,” Baig observed.
