Satna Municipal Corporation launched a strict recovery drive targeting property tax arrears. Around 6,000 owners, each with dues exceeding ₹50,000, have been served formal notices demanding payment.

The deadline underscores the corporation’s resolve to enforce fiscal discipline and ensure that essential civic services are not hampered by revenue shortfalls.
