The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government has decided to impose “cleanliness tax” on every house in Islamabad, a private media outlet has reported.
According to reports, every year the government spends nearly Rs2 billion on the cleanliness of rural and urban areas in the federal capital, considering which the municipal corporation has now sought references on how to levy the said tax.
The corporation has also established a committee in this regard and is aiming to collect around Rs1 billion every year.
The tax will initially be imposed on houses in urban areas and each house, including government properties, will have to pay it.
