Inaugurating the golden jubilee celebrations of The Bangalore Motor Owners Consumers Co-operative Society on Wednesday, he said: “The government can garner an annual revenue of Rs 120 crore through taxes if such a policy was in place. At present we are able to collect only Rs 8 crore.” He added that the private parties were exploiting the absence of such a policy.
Further, he said the government had repeatedly stressed on the need for a comprehensive transport policy in the State. “If it is implemented, then Karnataka will be the first in the country to have such a policy,” Ashok said.
