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.

Mangaluru, Jun 3: A banner that read "Veer Savarkar Flyover Pumpwell" surfaced on the sidewall of the Pumpwell flyover in Mangaluru on Tuesday night.

It is suspected that activists of Bajrang Dal put up the controversial banner. Though it was removed later, it sparked debates on social media and photos of it went viral.

The development comes amid the controversy over the naming of a flyover at Yelahanka in Bengaluru after Savarkar.

A Hindutva ideologue, Savarkar has tendered apology to British imperialists and pledged to support them following his arrest during India’s freedom movement.
