Deputy Chief Minister Mukesh Agnihotri said the Transport Department had set a target to collect a revenue of around Rs 850 crore this year.
The revenue would increase mainly by collecting the taxes pending from different vehicles and through the tax to be imposed on private luxury buses plying illegally in the state.
There are several vehicles with pending taxes. This has resulted in penalties and huge interest liabilities. We are giving them time up to June 30 to clear the actual amount with 10 per cent (fine).
