A total of 1,475 buildings, which have come up in the 17 villages notified for the Dr. Shivaram Karanth Layout being developed by the Bengaluru Development Authority (BDA), have been regularised based on reports by the Justice A. V. Chandrashekhar Committee appointed by the Supreme Court.
These property owners have been sent text messages that the Supreme Court had regularised their buildings and that they would soon be issued regularisation certificates (RCs).
Most of these buildings were those developed between December 2014 — when the High Court of Karnataka quashed preliminary notification for land acquisition for the Layout — and March 2018, when the Supreme Court upheld the notification and ordered for the Layout to be developed.
