Patiala : Former Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh today opposed imposition of retrospective and punitive taxes on colonisers and plot owners in unauthorised colonies in the state. He said it was arbitrary and unjustified on part of the state government to resort to such punitive taxation, particularly on residential plot owners residing there for over 20 years.
"Don't punish the common man with exorbitant and punitive taxes to cover up your own fiscal profligacy and financial failures," he said.
