The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday dismissed a batch of petitions, which had questioned the rules framed in 2007 for regularising unauthorised constructions and developments under the scheme popularly called Akrama-Sakrama.
A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice D.H. Waghela and Justice Ashok B. Hinchigeri passed the order as these petitions had become infructuous as the State government in 2014 framed new rules by repealing the 2007 rules.
The Bench reserved the liberty of the petitioners to question the legality of the newly framed Akrama-Sakrama scheme, the Karnataka Town and Country Planning (Regularisation of unauthorised development or constructions) Rules 2013.
THIS IS A NEVER ENDING STORY
