Chandigarh 18^th April:- Former union minister & president Chandigarh Jan Kalyan Manch, Harmohan Dhawan today lead a huge demonstration of venders dealing in chat, golgape, chana bhatura etc in front of the Municipal Corporation office against the exhorbitant increase in the licence fee which has been hiked from Rs 1600 per year to Rs 24000 per annum.

Harmohan Dhawan while addressing the gathering said that in the last few months the people have given a massive mandate to the PM Narendra Modi’s  mantra of “sab ka saath sab ka vikas”. It was a Modi sunami which resulted in huge victory of the BJP in various states & civil’s elections. Chandigarh also witnessed an unprecedented victory in CMC elections and came to power after about 15 yrs.

Harmohan Dhawan further said that on the one hand when the BJP Govt’s at the centre & various states are engaged in the welfare of the poorest of the poor, and on the other hand Chandigarh administration is preparing to hike the tax rates in parking, water, electricity, property tax etc.. Harmohan Dhawan said to realize the Modi’s dream of corruption free & welfare state, the Chandigarh administration should refrain from anti poor policies.

Later, Harmohan Dhawan met the commissioner B. Purushartha & submitted a memorandum demanding the withdrawal of increased licence fee. B Purushartha sympathetically listened to the demands and assured to reconsider the hike in the license fee.
