SPECIAL COURTS TO TRY ENCROACHMENT AND LAND GRABBING IN BANGALORE

The Legislature Committee Chairman Sri.Koliwad has stated that he would recommend setting up of a Special Court to Try Encroachment and will intimate his findings on the lake encroachments soon to the Chief Minister.

The Floods, over flowing of channels and raja kaluve is not because of abnormal rains.  It was raining millions of years and some years, it is deficient and in some years it is abnormal.  We cannot control it.  The Nature has its own laws and remedies.  But, the humans, with greediness has started constructing buildings in all the low lying and inhospitable areas and blocking the normal water flow.

The courts, the legislature, the laws, BBMP, BDA and all other civic agencies have NO CONTROL over the Nature.  In such a situation, is it not better to LIVE ON THE NATURE`S LAW.

BANGALORE RAINS BRINGS WOES TO RESIDENTS OF LOW LYING AREAS AND ZONES BORDERING THE LAKES AND RAJA KALUVE

It is natural for the flood waters to flow through the low gradients and due to heavy downpour in the last few days, some of the lakes are overflowing and few drains, secondary drains and raja kaluve are flooding the low lying areas of the City.

Many areas surrounding Madivala lake have flooded and rain water entered the low lying apartment basements in few and sewage is flowing into Madivala lake unchecked.  

There are many apartments very close to Raja Kaluve and the Lake, discharging the domestic sewage and some colour dying industry in Tavarekere and surrounding areas are discharging highly pathogenic effluents and highly toxic smokes in the zone.  The underground water table has been contaminated in many areas and the noise and the air pollution near the Central Silk Board junction is just `UN UNSPEAKABLE`.

Byrasandra, Tavarekere and Madiwala were watershed zones, which had been converted into highly polluting and polluted zone by the construction activity.


Planning to buy a property or an apartment - examine the location - before jumping into the bandwagon, compelled by the marketing techniques of the builders.

1). IN THE LOW LYING AREAS,
2). CLOSE TO LAKES, RAJA KALUVE AND SECONDARY CANALS,
3). CLOSE THE HIGH WAYS,
4). CLOSE TO KALYANA MANTAPS AND INDUSTRIAL ZONE,
5). ILLEGAL PROPERTIES,
6). UNAUTHORISED CONSTRUCTIONS,
7). FROM ANTI NATIONAL AND CRIMINALS,
8). CLOSE TO HIGH TENSION LINES,
9). NARROW ROADS, (ROAD WIDTH MUST BE 30 FEET-MINIMUM)
10). ON THE PROMISE OF THE AGENT OR THE BUILDERS,
11). IF THE BUILDER/SELLER DOES NOT HAVE ALL THE APPROVALS,
12). IF THE BUILDER/SELLER DOES NOT HAVE CLEAR TITLES OR IF THERE ARE ANY LITIGATIONS OR ARREARS OF TAXES TO GOVERNMENT,
13).  FROM TAX EVADERS,
14). FROM PERSONS OF SUSPICIOUS BACKGROUND.
