Industrialists demand cancellation of trade licences
|
21.4.2013 |
deccanherald.com |
Cancellation of trade licences, amendment to laws on pollution and nomination of members from the industry to the government were some of the demands put forward by industrialists before the political parties facing Assembly elections.
"The laws governing pollution are extremely unjust. The government charges a consent fee based on an investor's land and building, office machineries instead of levying the fee based on the amount of emission generated by industries.
"How are water and air pollution connected to a land and building fees?" J Crasta of the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (Assocham), said at a press conference on Saturday.
Representatives of Federation of Karnataka Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FKCCI), Peenya Industrial Association, Commerce and Industries Helpline and Advisory Board of Karnataka were present at the press conference.

deccanherald.com |
| For decades, the residents of Whitefield and its surroundings basked in the past glory of the 18th century Eurasian settlement, taking pride in nature's bounty. But now, in the middle of another cruel summer, they are faced with a daunting water shortage. It couldn't get any worse particularly for those living outside the gated communities and the apartment complexes.
The problem is getting acute in the villages in Whitefield area, which are part of the 110 brought under the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP).
