BENGALURU: The State government and BBMP are spending hundreds of crores of rupees to control situations like rain water control or floods. However, due to heavy rains, Rajakaluve has been postponing the clearance of encroachment.
In 2022, the city saw the highest rainfall of 1,958 mm, and the Government and BBMP have announced some plans to deal with the situation without any problem. Re-designing of Rajakaluve, including box concrete and embankment of lakes are planned to control water flow. Not only this, the World Bank has also planned to prevent climate change at a cost of ₹ 3 thousand crore. But no one is talking about the relief of Rajakaluve encroachment.
Due to the encroachment of the Rajakaluve, there was a flood-like situation in the city, the eastern areas were submerged. This was also accepted by the Government and BBMP. However, the encroachment clearance work has not started comprehensively even after six months.
The Rajakaluve under the jurisdiction of BBMP have been affected in 485 cases. BBMP Chief Commissioner Tushar Girinath had said in a meeting between the District Commissioner and the Tahsildar that February 15 is the last day for the Tahsildar to issue an order to vacate them. But even after this deadline, no order has come out. For a couple of days after such a meeting, a couple of places are cleared on a small scale. Then everything goes quiet.
Negligence of the authorities:
'BBMP says that there is no Rajakaluve encroachment in the south zone of Bengaluru. But the authorities have hidden the encroachment there', complained Deepak, a resident of Jayanagar.
Rajarajeshwari Nagar is rich in Rajakalves in many ways. Gopal, a resident of Halagevaderahalli, alleged that despite sending pictures of the houses being constructed and complaining to the authorities including Basavaraja Kabade, Chief Engineer of the Rajakaluve Division, no action is being taken.
50% order pending:
In 50% cases where encroachment has been identified, an order is due from the Tahsildar. The delay was due to transfer of Tahsildars. However, it has been suggested to vacate all encroachments by March 15. The eviction notice is being issued by March 10,' said BBMP Chief Commissioner Tushar Girinath.
No removal if there is no problem: Tushar Girinath
In many cases of the city, BDA, BBMP, etc., there are many types of encroachment on the public. In some cases, even though the original revenue record map of Rajakaluve are encroachment, there is no problem as there is an alternative canals. Evacuating hundreds of houses in those encroachments will do no good. Such cases will be brought to the notice of the High Court and will be proceeded with according to the order," said BBMP Chief Commissioner Tushar Girinath.
Zonal Commissioners have been instructed to identify encroachments within their jurisdiction. The Joint Commissioner has been ordered to inspect the site and give a report as to which encroachment removal is not beneficial. He said that there is no need to codify such zonal reports and clear any encroachments before the High Court.
