LAHORE: The Excise and Taxation Department has seized the documents of more than 180 vehicles in Lahore during a general hold-up.
Excise Motor Branch Director Suhail Arshad is taking stern action against token tax defaulters and unregistered vehicles in the region. Even on public holiday, the Excise Motor Branch continued its crackdown on defaulters and seized documents of vehicles in different areas of the city.
The Excise and Taxation Department has formed special teams to bring to book tax evaders and to impound unregistered vehicles. Director Suhail Arshad is supervising the campaign against such vehicles.
The teams of Motor Branch have established checkpoints on different roads of the city. Excise seized documents of defaulting vehicles on Jail Road, Ferozepur Road, Model Town, Multan Road, Raiwind Road, Ravi Road, Faisal Town and Shahdara Toll Plaza.
The action against defaulters will continue in the coming days as only one month is left in this fiscal year, but the department is facing a huge shortfall in revenue collection target.
