Mysuru: Mysuru – Kodagu MP Pratap Simha has written to  Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) Mayor and Deputy Commissioner to drop the plan to hike water tariff for the consumers.

Simha has also suggested the MCC to waive off Rs. 73.6 Crore interest accrued on pending water bills amounting to Rs. 146 Crore till November 2021. Simha has appealed to MCC to take a decision in this regard. Or else, the MCC Council should take a resolution and send it
to the government for its consent. I will request the Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai to drop the interest amount and collect only the arrears, he added.

Simha has claimed to be having information over MCC planning to hike
the water tariff. Instead the authorities must focus on installing metres for all the connections and increase the revenue than burdening the existing consumers with a hike, he asserted.
