DCB’s new fees opposed

Nashik: Members of different political parties met at the Zenda Chowk of Deolali Camp on Monday to protest against the new fee to be levied by the Deolali Cantonment Board (DCB) on the residents and commercial establishments for maintenance of the sewerage treatment plant.

The sewerage treatment plant was set up in April this year. The DCB has decided to levy Rs 150 per month per residence, and Rs 250 per commercial property, effective from April 2021. Vishwanath Kale, of Deolali Camp RPI, said the fee would hit poor residents, mainly the slum-dwellers, hard. The politicians have decided to give a memorandum to Rahul Gajbhiye, the CEO of DCB. tnn
