Mysore/Mysuru: Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) and Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) officials often wax eloquent on maintaining transparency in their functioning. But the ground reality is different as brokers and middlemen dominate in the two important Government bodies and many people are forced to approach the brokers, thanks to the nonchalant attitude of officials.
Citizens have been complaining that they are forced to contact middlemen as the authorities unnecessarily make them run from pillar to post to avail services, getting documents and payment of taxes. It has become a common sight for citizens to look to brokers for property tax remittance, tax stipulation, Khata registration, Khata transfer, plan approval, birth and death certificates etc.
