RSP supporters gave an application to the Municipal Commissioner alleging that taxes were collected without government notification in some areas within the limits of Vadodara Municipality. The application, filed by villagers led by Rashtriya Suraksha Party activist Swejal Vyas states the corporation had levied a two-year tax in the societies between Gorwa Panchvati and Karodiya. However, no facilities like road, water, sewerage, street light, cleaning are provided. Without the notification of the state government, the corporation has not provided any facility and the tax has been collected. They demand investigation in that direction and immediately return the money collected from thousands of homes. Or the new two-year bill will be waived if the property tax bill will be issued after the notification of the state government. Apart from this Karodiya is also included in 7 new villages included within the corporation limits and no facilities like roads, water, sewerage, street light
