“Some of the buildings and shops in the market area have been excluded. The owners concerned will be issued separate notices to clear their dues. Thus, the amount for the PU came down,” said an MC official.
The tax branch of the MC had earlier asked the university to pay the amount within 15 days at any Sampark Centre of the city, failing which, action to recover the dues had to be initiated under Section 138 of the Punjab Municipal Corporation Act, 1976, as extended to the UT without any further notice.
Following the notice, the PU and MC officials worked out details and the revised notice was issued.
