Govt. mulling over amendment to law to prevent registration of sites without RERA permission

Housing Minister Zameer Ahmed Khan has said that the government is considering a proposal to amend the law in order to prevent registration of sites without permission from Karnataka Real Estate Regulatory Authority (K-RERA) within the project jurisdiction, in a bid to prevent formation of unauthorised layouts. 

The Minister, who reviewed the functioning of the K-RERA in Bengaluru on Tuesday, observed that the developers of new layouts were selling plots without obtaining the authority’s permission. In some areas, layouts had been constructed on disputed lands, jeopardizing the buyers’ interests. To avoid this, the law would be amended to prevent registration of plots without RERA permission, he said. This matter would be discussed with the Revenue Department, he added.
