  • Sharebar

The Karnataka land revenue bill 2009 seeks to regularize unauthorized layouts and house sites developed prior to December 31, 2008. The details of the regularization process will be drafted in the rules to be formed under the amendments to the Land Revenue Act. There are large number of people who had constructed houses in unauthorized layouts or on unauthorized sites and were not in possession of valid ownership documents.

The Karnataka land revenue bill 2009 seeks to regularize unauthorized layouts and house sites developed prior to December 31, 2008.
It is a one-time measure to provide relief to a large number of people who had constructed houses in unauthorized layouts or sites. Nearly five lakh persons have purchased such sites and built houses thereon and are facing undue hardships. This is a one-time comprehensive scheme subject to certain reasonable conditions.

The legislation seeks to regularize all unauthorized structures and even the layouts and house sites formed on revenue lands, which include agricultural lands. In a way, the regularization announced under the Revenue Act is another format of the Akrama-Sakrama scheme contemplated nearly two years ago and has been awaiting implementation. However, that scheme is only pertained to jurisdiction of BBMP while amendment of bill is applicable to all over the state.

Under the new legislation, unauthorized structures or sites in natural drains, on government lands, the applicant has no title, beneath high tension lines etc., will not be regularized.
The H.D. Kumaraswamy-led coalition Government had taken pains to implement the Akrama-Sakrama scheme in 2007 and it was then estimated that nearly six lakh unauthorized constructions in Bangalore would stand to benefit. Under the new legislation, some of the conditions include — unauthorized structures or sites in natural drains, on government lands, coming in the way of existing or proposed rings roads, national highways etc, belonging to another person over which the applicant has no title, beneath high tension lines etc., will not be regularized. Property owner with more than two floors have to produce a certificate from a structural engineer and a no-objection certificate from the Fire and Emergency Services Department.
