Original Note:
OP claim of "tax on toilets" is false. The tax is on use of public sewerage, not toilets. It is for urban residents with a private water supply due to which their water bill was zero. Since existing sewerage tax was 30% of water bill, their use of sewerage was not taxed. https://www.news18.com/india/himachal-pradesh-govt-imposes-toilet-seat-tax-on-urban-residents-9072114.html https://english.jagran.com/india/himachal-pradesh-govt-imposes-toilet-seat-tax-on-urban-dwellers-heres-what-residents-have-to-pay-10192013
