According to the norms candidates for the municipal elections have to present the NOC at the time of filing of nomination papers, which is scheduled to start from October 3. The NOC verifies that the candidate has cleared all his dues relating to the house tax. Special cells have been constituted for each zone by the KMC to facilitate the process of issuing NOC to candidates from Friday.
