One did not say for nothing that there is separate law for Rich and Affluent. There are many villas and posh buildings in prime areas spreading over thousands of square feet. All of them owned by peoples representatives and power’full’ ministers. However they turn poor when paying property tax and Govt officials who charge double the amount and charges and surcharges over past years from honest tax payers will bend laws to curry favors from politicians.

The popular property tax defaulters includer HM Sabita Indra Reddy, Women and welfare Minister Sunita Lakshma Reddy, Minister Mukesh Gowd, MLA Akula Rajender, MLA Vishnuvardhan Reddy, MLA Sudhir Reddy, Nandeswar Reddy another MLA.Even MIM strong man Asauddin owasi also makes it to the list along with MLA Koona Srisailam Gowd.

The laws are also helping the powerful and rich while in Bengaluru there is strict vigilance on property defaulters and those who submit wrong assessment which results in three times the property tax.
