The divisional commissioner has been asked to complete the process of hearing suggestions and objections and submitting a report on it by July end, he said. “Once the report is submitted by the divisional commissioner, appropriate decision would be taken,” he added.

Replying to the main question raised by NCP member Kisan Kathore on the issue, the chief minister said the KDMC’s move, to levy additional property tax would be scrutinised. “The civic administration will be directed, to ensure that there is no coercive recovery of tax, levied by the general body of the civic body,” the CM said.

Shiv Sena MLA Subhash Bhoir said the 27 villages have not seen any development by the KDMC and still, additional property tax, which is 20 per cent of all the taxes, was being levied.

Fadnavis admitted that rapid urbanisation cannot be handled by the rural local bodies. He said the government has already announced Rs 1,000 crores, for the development of Kalyan Growth Centre and Rs 180 crores had been given to the 27 villages, for water supply and sanitation purpose under the AMRUT scheme.
