Shivaram Karanth Layout: How this project by Bengaluru Development Authority is a threat to farmers

Just a few kilometers away from Bengaluru, farmers are paying the price for a development project by the Bengaluru Development authority (BDA). The notification to develop Shivaram Karanth Layout was first issued in 2008. Over 3000 acres of land is being acquired in 17 villages by the BDA. Will the villagers get their fair share of compensation? and more importantly, how necessary is this project for the growth of Bengaluru? Deccan Herald brings you the ground report.

This news should come more in media. Even media has neglected this news earlier when the farmers were protesting..

[@prajwalba3065]

Guess media is afraid of BJP "Vishwanath" is also the bda chairman and has never spoken anything about it at all.... And there is no transparency in anything at all.... Such a pity on farmer's and land owners since there is also no fair compensation given..... ☹️

[@nag7787]

Farmers are paid 3years back who opted for cash if not they will get 40percent of layout

[@prajwalba3065]

@@nag7787 yes... Do you think the amount is justified....? And also it is just said till date 40% will be given..... But nothing in writing. SO it's still not guaranteed... Also.... In that case if it is not a scam then why did Bda previously approve? 🙎

[@pavannaidujagarlamudi]

In my opinion, all these issues would have been resolved if bbmp had started approving a higher floor rate index rate from 2.25 to a much higher number. It would’ve reduced the demand because of sumptuous supply of houses inside the city.

[@babumicromech]

If the BDA does not acquire these lands and make plots, these farmers will sell it to land developers and make sites with nature roads without facility and sell, this is what is happening around Bangalore, but the BDA should have very good compensation to the land owners

[@krishnayogi]

Well said Babu So many areas in Bangalore are horrible with bad roads due to farmers greed

Nice report ANAGHA. GOOD WORK keep going

[@venktesh6600]

The reporting is good but the legal aspect of the acquisition is not explained properly I think. What land was that were the farmers rightful owners of that land or just were using govt. land for agriculture for so many years? The woman says the property was from her ancestors. When Raja Kaluve issue emerged in Bangalore then we heard BDA games, and also it says BDA is not a govt body on first hand. On what grounds acquisition happening? they bring amendments in the name of development and people remain struggling in their life and thinking that they have property and security. Does DC have the detailed archive of the story in or link of that ?

[@vineetcv261]

exactly,seems like one side of a story

[@hasanaliqadri1508]

Govt authorities doesn't have any guidelines for example BWSSB puts occupancy certificate cess of double the amount of water consumption in it's bill which is not even related to it where as occupancy certificate is the prerogative of BBMP and issuance of occupancy certificate is very difficult for small houses and BWSSB has charges differently for old consumers and new consumers which not seen anywhere in the world, loot is going on and even educated people of Bangalore are ignorant of this loot.

This has been going on for so many years people putting up all their resources to get the justice they need. BDA has acquired so many areas and none of them haven't gotten their share or the compensation they were promised. This is not even the worst part the land that is being acquired to auctioned off to developers who further are going to bring up buildings all over these areas .

[@chethan879]

Nobody is farming in these lands (throughout the video there was hardly any real crop shown). Landowners are very rich and would like to develop their own layouts with small roads, no parks, no central planning. Centralized development from BDA should be encouraged for common good. Even with BDA acquisition, these farmers get 40% of developed land whose value is more than 6 crores/acre. These people are complaining only because they are now getting 6 crores per acre instead of 10 crores if they were allowed to plan their own congested layouts. Please do your research instead of publishing such reports with false narrative that can obstruct development work.
