CC Staff

The Madikeri CMC meeting yesterday saw opposition up in arms against the CMC’s move to increase the water tax from Rs. 45 to Rs.90.  The opposition charged the move as burdening the common man with more when the CMC was not even capable of providing regular water supply in most of the areas.

Madikeri is facing acute water shortage now and then. The CMC is banking on the Kunda Maistry Reservoir Project to be completed, to tide over the water crisis in future.

Stating that they are increasing the water tax after a decades,  CMC president Nandakumar said ” the people can afford the hike”.
