Abdul Rehman, leader of the Opposition in EDMC, claimed that the BJP was merely putting on a show by demanding that the increased property tax be pulled back.

He alleged that by presenting this proposal before the house, the BJP had flouted the rules of the house.

“Before putting up a proposal for discussion all the councillors need to be informed of it in advance. But they did not follow protocol and put up the proposal for discussion,” he alleged.
