Pay property tax on Taj Mahal, Agra Fort; water bills also pending: UP govt officials to ASI

Custodians of the Taj Mahal and the Agra Fort have reportedly been served notices by the Uttar Pradesh government for pending payment of property tax and water bills.

The Archaeological Survey of India said that it has been asked to pay over ₹1 crore by UP authorities, according to an NDTV report.

The news report quoted ASI officials as saying that this is the first time such notices have been served as property taxes are not applicable on monuments. Also, there are no water connections for commercial use, and the lawns are maintained for public service, the ASI said.

The Archaeological Survey reportedly said that it was a mistake that should be remedied soon.
