Kere Manjunath ಕೆರೆ ಮಂಜುನಾಥ್‌

Bengaluru: The state has constructed 644 new lakes under the central government's 'Amrita Sarovar' scheme as part of the Independence Amrita Mahotsava. More than four crore cubic meters of water has been collected in an area of ​​more than 11 thousand acres.

In the 'Amrita Sarovar' project for comprehensive development of lakes, the construction of new lakes has also been undertaken. In this, Belgaum district has got the first position and has created 75 lakes in an area of ​​493 acres. Then comes Hassan. 60 lakes have been constructed in an area of ​​6,714 acres.

In addition to reviving the dead lakes as new lakes in the revenue records, new construction work has been undertaken where there is a possibility of water storage. New lakes have been built to collect water from the hills, including drinking water, water for animals, shared by villages and villages and to help biodiversity.

Rejuvenation of 1,963 lakes: 

At least 75 lakes in each district were to be rejuvenated under the Amrita Sarovar project. However, the state has set a target of 204 lakes. Thus, 6,324 lakes have been identified, in which work has started on 4,738 lakes and 1963 lakes have been rehabilitated. Due to this, the storage of more than one crore cubic meters (1,14,69,183 cubic meters) of water has increased. With this achievement, the state is now at the 4th position in the country's ranking list.

If there is an acre lake area, its water storage capacity should be increased to 10 thousand cubic meters. Like the 'Amrita Sarovar' project, local people including freedom fighters, their families, Padma awardees are engaged in the restoration works of the lakes.

Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department, Minor Irrigation Department, Watershed Development Department, Agriculture, National Highways Authority of India, Railway Department are implementing the project.

Undissolved soil in Hoskarehalli lake

BBMP promise unfulfilled for three days; Local outrage

Kere Manjunath ಕೆರೆ ಮಂಜುನಾಥ್‌

Bengaluru: Local people and environmentalists expressed their displeasure as special commissioner Ravindra's promise that the mud spilled in Hoskerehalli Lake was not fulfilled even after three days.

Members of Citizens for Hosakerehalli Lake, Jhatkaa.org and The Indian Ploggers' Army had fought for Hoskerehalli lake that it should be cleared. Responding to this, Ravindra, Special Commissioner of Planning Department of BBMP, visited the place on March 23.

Road is not being built in the lake. Changing the sewer water flow path. For this, mud has been poured to facilitate the movement of lorries and vehicles. He assured the locals that it would be cleared. But on Sunday when we all went to the lake, work was being done by JCBs in the lake as usual. The soil was not removed. The members of the organization complained that when they tried to contact the BBMP officials, no one responded.

A tender has been floated for the development of Hosakere Halli Lake at a cost of ₹9 crore. However, the works have started without this tender work being started. It is said that money will be spent on silt removal now. However, the silt was removed in 2017 by BDA. BBMP engineers have no information about this. Now again they are spending crores for the same work. Srinivas, a local, alleged that all this is a way of looting money.

If you ask the executive engineer who called the tender to inform you about the new tender and give a detailed project report (DPR) of the work you are undertaking, he says that there is no DPR. Tender cannot be called without DPR. Hence it is a violation of tender rules. He demanded that action should be taken against them.

Clearance is done only after completion of work

'Work is being done on one side to make the retaining wall. On the other hand, work is being done to divert sewage water from the solid waste management department under the Shubhra Bangalore project. For this, earth is being poured temporarily and 'ramp' is being made. It will cost ₹10 crore and the work will be done for a few months. Clearance is done only after completion of work. The lake will be fully protected," said Ravindra, Special Commissioner of BBMP Planning Department.

Sewage, soil to Bhimanakatta

Rajarajeshwarinagar Bheemanakatte lake sewage and soil-stone are being poured into Hoskere village. The members of the Bhimanakatte lake protection group complained that they appealed to the BBMP officials and MLAs in this regard but to no avail.

It was requested to remove the silt of the lake and increase the storage capacity. Didn't do that either. Now the sewage water is flowing into the lake from above. This has been requested to be stopped. But, BBMP, BWSSB officials are not responding,' said Balaga K.A. Shiva Gowda said.

If there is any other development in the area surrounding the lake, it will block the flow of water to the Bhimanakatte lake. Therefore, appropriate action should be taken in this regard,' he said.

An unresponsive engineer

In Rajarajeshwari Nagar zone, Hoskarehalli Lake, Bheemanakatte, Mallattahalli, Halagevaderahalli, Kenchenahalli lakes are being developed against the environment and the soil filling is being done. Local residents and lake conservation activists have complained that Shilpa, the engineer of the lakes department of this zone, does not give any information to the citizens.

Shilpa does not give information to the chief engineer either. He is the reason for all the shortcomings in the development of lakes. Rajasekhar alleged that everything is happening as per his wish. Shilpa did not respond to this.

Measured increase in Rajakaluve encroachment

In the east there was still more Rajakaluve encroachment; BBMP, district administration not taking action

Kere Manjunath ಕೆರೆ ಮಂಜುನಾಥ್‌

Bengaluru: The removal of encroachment in the Rajakaluve, which caused the pre-submergence, is not going on at the expected level. However, encroachment alone is increasing as measured. It has been revealed that more than 26 acres of Rajkaluve is encroached upon in Three Hobli of Bengaluru East Taluk.

Most of the areas in the eastern taluk of the city were submerged due to heavy rains last September. On that occasion, BBMP had said that it would vacate many types of encroachments. After a few days of encroachment clearance, everything cooled down. However, identifying the encroachment and documenting its extent was completed in January. According to the records of revenue departments, encroachment has been found in more than 90 cases in this taluk.

East Taluk Varthur, Bidrahalli, K.R. Revenue Department has registered new cases of Rajakaluve encroachment in Pura Hobli. Encroachments were found when the Rajakaluve were measured and surveyed as per revenue records. All these have been identified and all the processes have been completed and placed under the order of Tahsildar.

After the rains stopped and the water flow to the House and Layouts is decreased, the clearing operation of Rajakaluve encroachment slowed down. BBMP Chief Commissioner Tushar Girinath has been giving deadlines since January that he will carry out the eviction operation once all the orders are received. But nothing is working.

Area unmarked in many places: It has been stated in the survey report that the 'Canal' has been encroached upon by the tenants in Survey number 112, 114. However, the area is not recorded. Similarly, Karimamma's Agrahara survey no. 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22 are recorded as encroachment by tenants.

Survey no. 129/1 between 129 and 130 it is recorded that the building was constructed in the pit. Survey no. 34, 121, 122 only recorded that there is a road. Locals alleged that the surveyors gave in to the pressure of the influential and abandoned some encroachments.

• Water, water, water… everyone needs water. When there is no water its devastating, when there is water, usage is irresponsible. Amidst this irony, there are practitioners who have made water conservation their daily routine. Do you know?
• Lots of people plants, pose to lot for photos too. But ignored nurturing. In these scenarios, there are people who committed to nature. They fight to save plants and trees. Those don't come to limelight...
• Who built the Dharmambudhi lake that used to provide drinking water to Bengaluru, now it is a bus stand?
• Tell me, who doesn't know Bengaluru Karaga? But the original place which caused the creation of this is not seen today. Do you know that place?
• Hundreds of crores have been spent on the development of Bangalore lakes. But, all that is in it is dirty water. So, where did all these hundreds of crores go?
• What have they done for environmental protection?
• There is no water bill in his house.. Do you know why?

BbMp: Cancellation of 'A' Khata for one lakh property!

BBMP to Regular Enrollment; Punishment for illegality of A Khata

Kere Manjunath ಕೆರೆ ಮಂಜುನಾಥ್

BENGALURU: A preliminary investigation by the 'Scrutiny Committee' has revealed that 'A' Khatas have been issued despite not being eligible under BBMP, and it is estimated that around one lakh 'A' Khatas may have been illegally registered in 243 wards.

 Chief Commissioner Tushar Girinath has formed a 'Scrutiny Committee' to review all the accounts in the wake of complaints that 'A' Khatas were made illegally in the city. Thousands of irregularities were discovered in the initial investigation of this committee.

 In order to Khata for a property under BBMP coverage, certain fees and documents are required including development fee. But without considering this the Assistant Revenue Officers (ARO) entered the property information in 'A' register. But the fees have not been paid to the corporation.

 It is known that the new properties have been entered in the register as sub-numbers among the properties previously entered in the 'A' Khata. For example, if 31 and 32 are Khata entries of different assets, then a new Khata is made as 31/1 in between. It is meant to be treated as an old registration. Only 3 or 4 property information is recorded on one page of the register. However, on some pages, a different property has been entered as a sub-number using the space between.

 In some 'A' registers only the owner's name, Khata number is entered and no order is given as per clause. Further, if a person's name is entered in multiple pages of the same register, an 'A' Khata is given. All these have sub-no. Sources said that more irregularities will come to light if the registers are thoroughly scrutinized.

 Cancellation of Illegal A Khata

Illegality of 'A' Khatas is being checked. If there is no document as per our rules including land conversion and development fee, the 'A' Khata of such property will be cancelled," said Jayaram Raipur, chairman of the 'Scrutiny Committee'.

 In 15 days, the process of verifying all the documents will be completed. Later, how many illegal Khatas there are will be revealed.

 800 illegal in Anjanpur division!

 Anjanapur sub-division of Bommanahalli zone of BBMP covers less properties. More than 800 Khatas have been illegally registered in the 'A' register in the two wards here, it has emerged from the preliminary investigation of the 'Scrutiny Committee'. All of them are being seized and examined by the BBMP committee. It was earlier estimated to be illegal only in the new five zones. But since there are complaints everywhere, the committee has decided to conduct inspection in all 243 wards.

 One week deadline: Jairam Raipur

The Assistant Revenue Officers (AROs) of all divisions should provide the information about illegal 'A' Khatas under BBMP within a week. They have all kinds of information. If they don't provide information, criminal cases will be registered against the respective AROs when the investigation is carried out by the committee,' said Jairam Raipur, Special Commissioner of Finance, who is the chairman of the 'Scrutiny Committee'.
