4 lakh houses will be built in Karnataka for the underprivileged: UT Khader

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.

Bengaluru, Feb 8: The BJP on Saturday drew flak on Twitter for taking a swipe at Muslim women who appear to be standing in a line to vote in Delhi's assembly polls. ""Kaagaz Nahi Dikayenge Hum" ! ! ! Keep the documents safe, you will need to show them again during NPR exercise (sic)," the party's Karnataka Twitter handle posted using the hashtag #DelhiPolls2020. 

The video, which appears to have been taken from one of the polling booths in Delhi on Saturday, shows burqa-clad women flashing their voter ID cards. While the threatening tone of the tweet is unmissable, the tweet contradicts the government's statement that no person needs to submit any documents during the house-to-house survey for updating the National Population Register (NPR) and that information provided by individuals would be accepted and recorded. 

The tweet has added to the prevailing confusion regarding the NPR exercise in the country. 

The NPR is a list of "usual residents" of the country. In 2010, the data for NPR was collected along with the house-listing phase of the Census of India 2011. The data was updated in 2015 by conducting a door-to-door survey.

Currently, it has been decided to update the NPR along with the house-listing phase of Census 2021 during April to September 2020 in all the states/union territories except Assam.

Most of the opposition parties see NPR as a prelude to the contentious National Register of Citizens (NRC), which has been opposed by even NDA allies like the JD(U). The NPR questionnaire asked details like the birthplace of parents. In combination with the recently amended citizenship law, protesters fear that the registry might be eventually used for NRC. 

As a result, people, predominantly Muslims, have hit the streets as India witnesses one of the most widespread civilian unrest of recent times.
