Mangaluru, Dec 10: Urban development and housing minister UT Khader has said that the state government would build four lakh houses across Karnataka for the underprivileged sections of society, of which one lakh will be built in Bengaluru.

Affirming the Karnataka government’s commitment to the housing sector, he said that the government would render the process to obtain clearances for builders and developers simpler by introducing a single-window clearance system for no-objection certificates and licences. “This will be launched by chief minister HD Kumaraswamy in Bengaluru on December 15,” Khader said.

The minister said that he was looking to collect feedback to help improve living experience in urban spaces in the state. “As soon as I took charge of the urban development and housing department, I instructed officials to eliminate all middlemen and stressed the role of efficiency,” said Khader.

Elaborating on the nitty-gritty of the single-window system, Khader said, “The mechanism is supported by a software that will prevent builders from having to run from pillar to post to seek approval. Once the application is submitted to the system, the applicant will know if it has been accepted or rejected within seconds. The date of inspection will be sent to the applicant in 15 days, and the inspection itself will be completed within 30 days of the application’s submission.”

He said the government had identified an area of 1,000 acres in Bengaluru to construct one lakh houses for economically weaker sections of the society. “The CM will lay the foundation stone for the project on January 26,’ said Khader.

News Network

July 8,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 8: In a setback to the State government, the Karnataka High Court on Wednesday stayed the initial ban and the subsequent restrictions imposed on schools against conducting online classes from pre-primary to Class X.

Prima facie the ban and embargo imposed on online education violate Articles 21 and 21A of the Constitutionon the fundamental right to education, the Court said.

A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Abhay Shreeniwas Oka and Justice Nataraj Rangaswamy passed the interim order staying the operation of Government Orders issued on June 15 and June 27 respectively.

The Bench passed the interim order on the petitions filed by parents of children and several educational institutions questioning the legality of the ban and the restrictions imposed.

However, the Bench made it clear that this order should not be construed that the schools have right to make online education compulsory and can charge fee for offering online education. Also, the schools should not deprive students, who cannot opt for online education, the lost education when the schools reopen on regular basis.
