BENGALURU: An ordinance to regularise building violations in Bengaluru is unlikely to bring in any revenue and will only add pressure to the inadequate civic infrastructure and challenges of India’s technology hub, experts and political leaders said.
The ordinance to amend sections of the Bengaluru Development Authority (BDA) laws to legalise violations of around 75,000 residential units for a penalty is also unlikely to get an overwhelming response, they added.
The scheme will regularise the violations of 75,000 units built across 6,000 acres and over 12 years old with a fine that is 10-40% of the guidance value depending on the size of the plot.
