TOKEN TAX: The Excise and Taxation Department has asked defaulters of vehicle token tax to pay dues without late fee by June 30, or else face legal action. After the deadline, a vigorous campaign will be launched against token tax defaulters and 50 percent of total outstanding tax amount will be charged as fine, besides impounding of vehicle. The planning has been finalised to launch a crackdown on token tax defaulters across the district from new fiscal year.
