MC to take action against those subletting shops in villages
The Municipal Corporation is contemplating action against those subletting its shops in villages. The issue would be taken up for discussion in the meeting of the Finance and Contract Committee.

The shops in most of the villages including Badheri,Buterla,Hallomajra,Burail Kajheri,etc have been sublet by owners. The shops had been auctioned for a period of three years. However,owners kept subletting these shops as a result of which the civic body has now decided to take action against the erring tenants. The trend is causing loss of revenue to the civic body.

Mayor Anu Chatrath said subletting of shops would not be allowed and action would be taken against defaulters.
