Dear sir,
I had purchased a open plot on 15/01/10 in washim (Maharashtra) after i that i gone to the local municipal corporation to register the same in my name but the Municipal authority asked me about the property card in my name which was not available on that time and they kept my application aside. Further i submitted property card in my name on 18/05/10 for registration but the tax inspector told me the taxes are due from 2002-03 to 2010-11 i was ready to pay the same but he asked me bribe to tell the total due tax amount.
Further i applied under RTI that what action taken on my application, rate of tax per sq meter how to convert residental plot into commercial plot etc.to PIO on 13/09/10, to appelate authority on 06/11/10 and information commision on 10/12/10 (yet to get reply).
Now i got two reply on 13/01/11 that i have to be present there on 14/01/11 to solve the issue from appellate authority which is not possible for me as i am 400 km away from washim and other from PIO stating the full amount of tax required to be paid.
My questions are:-
1) is it necessary that i should be there phycially?
2) is there any municipal corporation law book aplicable for Maharashtra? pl state the name of the book?
3) Can i ask them under RTI tax calculated per year and how they have calculated it?
