Are you looking to buy a plot in Bangalore, especially in the outskirts of the city? Then you need to be doubly careful before investing your hard-earned money on the plot as the number of illegal layouts formed on revenue and encroached government lands are on the rise.
The issue figured in the Assembly on Monday as some MLAs from Bangalore expressed concern over the proliferation of unauthorised layouts in the city and demanded that the government put a stop to registration of revenue and unauthorised properties immediately to help the city grow in a planned manner.
Participating in a debate in the Legislative Assembly on the demand for grants for the Revenue Department, BJP MLA S.R. Vishwanath alleged that unauthorised layouts had been formed on 480 acres of land in Bangalore North Additional Taluk alone.
Most of such layouts had been formed on revenue lands or encroached government lands including forestlands, he said.
Those who had bought sites in such layouts were mostly lower middle-class people as the prices of sites were lower, he said. But such layouts were turning out to be nightmares for buyers as they were later discovering contentious issues associated with ownership.
He alleged that various civic authorities were giving their assent to such unauthorised layouts as the developers were ‘greasing the palms’ of key-officials. Another BJP MLA Satish Reddy too expressed similar views and alleged that a large number of illegal layouts had come up in the green belt near the Electronics City in Bangalore.
