Withdraw order hiking property tax, says G.K. Vasan

Tamil Maanila Congress president G.K. Vasan on Monday demanded that the Tamil Nadu government withdraw the order increasing property taxes in the State.

Leading a protest near the Chennai Collectorate, he said the tax hikes would badly hit the poor and middle class citizens and those staying in rented houses.
