DVC reaffirms ban on tax collection

Darogapathar Village Council (DVC) has reaffirmed its resolution passed on August 18, 2016, that banned “any sort of tax collection by any of the NNPGs on the business communities or village household within Darogapathar village jurisdiction.”

In a press release, DVC chairman K Ado Bizo and secretary Imjongkumba Jamir informed that there should not be any sort of checking on expiry dates of commodities, weighing machine or scale, rates etc., without prior approval and permission of the council. 

DVC cautioned that any individual or groups involved in any such activities without the knowledge of the council would face strict legal actions. 

Further, the Darogapathar village council has reaffirmed its earlier stand on “one government, one tax”.
