Bengaluru, May 31: The state Cabinet on Tuesday deferred taking a decision on notifying the final rules for the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2017.RealEstate

Briefing reporters after the meeting, Law Minister T?B?Jayachandra said discussions on notifying rules to the Act, which aim at protecting consumers' interests and enhancing transparency in the real estate sector, remained inconclusive. “We will take a decision on the issue at the next Cabinet meeting,” he said.

Asked whether there was a demand from a section of ministers that rules should not be applicable for on-going projects, Jayachandra replied in the negative. As per the draft rules, all developers will have to register under-construction projects with the regulatory authority within three months of the implementation of the Act.

Housing Minister M?Krishnappa has been on record stating that the final rules will be notified by May 31. Jayachandra also evaded a direct reply to a query whether the state government was considering bringing changes in the model RERA rules recommended by the state. Sources said the state government will seek legal opinion whether the Act will be applicable to projects taken up by Bangalore Development Authority and Karnataka Housing Board.

The Cabinet also cleared a proposal for setting up Ayush units in all taluk hospitals in the state, Jayachandra said.

The Cabinet gave its approval for the chief minister's “Anila Bhagya Scheme'' of providing free gas connections and stove to five lakh poor families, which have not qualified under the Centre's Ujjwala scheme, the minister added.

The Cabinet gave its approval for developing 10,000 hectares of good quality cashew orchards over the next five years at a cost of Rs 10 crore.

Bengaluru, Jun 29: The results of second pre-university and the Secondary School Leaving Certificate examination results will be out by July last week and August first week, Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar said on Monday.

Instead of giving general promotion to the 10th and 12th standard students as the Central Board of Secondary Education and other states have done, the Karnataka government decided to hold the examination defying the coronavirus scare.

"We are trying to get the SSLC results out by the first week of August.The PUC results will be out in the last week of July," the minister told reporters in Bengaluru.

Amid reports of schools increasing the school fees ignoring the government's direction, the minister said he has got reports that 1,150 schools have increased their fees of which action has been taken against 450 schools.

"We have directed all the schools not to increase the fees in view of the coronavirus scare.

It is a peculiar year.Humanity says no one should increase fees.

We have set up a helpline. If we come across such practices, we will initiate action," Kumar said.

He said an officer has been entrusted to look into the complaints against schools.

Speaking about online classes for kindergarten students, the minister said such classes are not allowed.

The schools can hold talks with parents twice a week about grooming their children.

Kumar said a decision on opening kindergarten schools will be taken after July 5.

He, however, conceded that most parents are unwilling to send their children to school.

The government is gathering the opinion of parents based on which a decision would be taken, he added.

Regarding education to students from Class one to Class 10, Kumar said the Centre has given guidelines, which will be followed.

The state has formed an expert committee to recommend guidelines on education to children from Class I to Class six.

"Once the committee report comes, we will formulate regulations," Kumar added.
