THE HIGH COURT OF KARNATAKA HAS QUASHED THE NOTIFICATION ISSUED BY THE BDA FOR THE ACQUISITION OF 4000 ACRES OF LAND FOR THE FORMATION OF KEMPEGOWDA LAYOUT TO FORM 54000 SITES IN KENGERI AND SURROUNDING AREAS ON WEDNESDAY.
THIS COMES AS A SHOCKER TO THE GOVERNMENT AS THE PROCEDURES HAD NOT BEEN FOLLOWED AS LAID DOWN IN THE BDA ACT, BUT THE GOVERNMENT HAS POWERS TO COME OUT WITH ANOTHER NOTIFICATION, BY PROPERLY FOLLOWING THE PROCEDURES.
THE PROCEDURAL LAPSES AND THE LAXITY OF THE OFFICIALS HAVE BROUGHT DOWN THE CURTAINS ON THE PROPOSED LAYOUT.
