The High Court has directed the Goa government to investigate allegations of irregularities in fee reductions by the Town and Country Planning (TCP) department for zoning changes. The court’s directive came in response to a petition that raised concerns about the TCP department allegedly granting fee cuts for zone changes without following proper procedures. The petition claimed that the fee reductions were made arbitrarily and without any valid reasons, potentially leading to revenue losses for the government. The court has instructed the government to conduct a thorough probe into the matter and submit a report on the findings. This development highlights the importance of transparency and adherence to regulations in the process of zoning changes, especially when it comes to fees and charges. Stay tuned for further updates on this issue as the investigation unfolds.
