The High Court of Karnataka on Friday expressed its displeasure over the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) not framing a comprehensive policy to prevent further encroachment of storm-water drains (SWDs) despite a direction given by the court earlier.
The court said, “The BBMP has not stated anything on what actions were initiated against those encroachers and what actions were initiated against the erring officers who were maintaining blissful silence when constructions encroaching the SWDs were put up.”
