Kanthi Sridhar, Bangalore

Hi
BMRDA stands for Bangalore Metropolitan Region Development Authority (BMRDA) an autonomous body created by the Government of Karnataka. My Citi is a residential project of Aishwarya Projects. For more details about My Citi you can click on My Citi, Bangalore .

I do not think BBMP is going to take care of the civic issues in Bangalore because it have been long time that there is no regularisation of water supply in Mathikere ward. BBMP have demolished many houses for widening the roads but still now there is no sign of road widening in the city.

Any idea about the builder! How is their reputation?

Is Nitesh Forest Hill's an approved project?

The residents of Sanjaynagar ward are fed up with the water issue in their ward. The residents have to buy water from the private water suppliers by paying extra amount of Rs 350 per water tank. BBMP has repaired water pipelines and drainage in many of the areas and they have taken up measures to ensure water supply at all the areas of the wards.

The civic issues in Bangalore seems to have no ending and even the civic body also seems to be least interested regarding the civic issues in the city. Recently a electric pole broke pulled by a concrete mixer vehicle and the power wires were also cut threatening life of residents. Residents complained to BESCOM doubting the poor quality used in electric poles. My doubt is that will this threatening life of residents.

Regarding this issue the BESCOM Engineer advised the residents not to panic as they have automated system wherein in case of any such crash the power supply completely stops.

It is due to the metro work that KSRTC have shifted their services from Majestic to Shantinagar Bus Station on KH Road affected from 28th December. To ease the traffic in and around Majestic. Buses operating from Majestic towards other cities will now be operated from Shantinagar Bus Station.

There is deficiency of parking space in city but still things to be managed by BBMP. BBMP has approved the sanction of private parking ventures but only by seeking it’s permission, but unfortunately the commuters in the city have no idea about this whether the private ventures or the government owns a parking lots. BBMP has an add on issue to think about and solve at the earliest for the welfare of the citizens.

The city is developing and progressing rapidly. Now-a-days Mysore is getting established with a luxury living. Many real estate companies have started bearing roots in the city selling flats at affordable prices. Even Mysore four lane ring road is now transformed into eight lanes. Very soon the Mysore will be one of the hotspots for realty investment.

What is the current situation? Have they got occupancy certificate and water connection?

Yes you are right, the Bysani goup has till now not provide the occupancy certificate. Even they have violated zonal regulations, now the BBMP has ordered the residents to vacant the building immediately.

No, the Bangalore metro has decided to run till mid-night only on January 1st to give a joy ride to the Bangalorean on the occasion of New Year.

Now BBMP has planned to flash all the names of the property tax defaulters with full details in all the major newspapers to introduce them to the world. At least with this concern BBMP expects the property tax defaulters to clean all the pending taxes.

Yes, to avoid single illegal land title, the guaranteed land titles will be issued by the Urban Property Ownership Records project. Karnataka is the first state in the country to provide guaranteed land titles.

Yes it is true drop down in realty made Bangalore an affordable city. Recently all the cities were badly hit by the hike in property prices but lucky Bangalore survived. Now Bangalore has been rates as one of the affordable city in the country.

KSRTC has come up with an idea of intermodal transit center. The project will start within one year and the corporation has decided to set up the inter modal transport facility at Majestic Terminal. The center will link the bus terminus with the proposed railway stations, Bangalore metro and to long distance bus terminus.

After the recent fire break out in Kolkata hospital, the state inspection of Bangalore started to check the existence of fire and emergency services. It was really a shocking news for the Bangalorean that among hundred hospitals only nine of them have fire safety implementation.

In a property show organized by Priya publication and REBI it is found that NRI's have Bangalore city as their favorite destination for real estate investments. Even though the rates have gone down the southern cities in India seems to be attracting the NRI's for investing money in real estate.

Due to metro project many trees in Lalbagh, rose garden on Nanda Road had to face the axe and even the Cubbon park is also shrinking day by day.

If the tenants are foreign nationals then they have to provide passport and other documents which support the purpose of staying.

From now onwards all the house owners have to register their tenant’s name and address at the nearest police station.

The response has not been good because most of the people do not want to alter their existing buildings as it may spoil the architecture of the house. The owner of the houses on smaller areas is in fear of disconnection as they do not have bore-wells. The people staying in the larger areas are reluctant because either they have bore-wells or they can afford to buy a tanker.

The area is very nice surrounded by malls, hospitals, schools, shops etc, but relatively Ramamurthy nagar is a dry area. In future, appreciation is very good.

I would suggest you to take an advice from a person who is an expert or deals with land matters. Buying a B khata is a risk as in many areas the khatas are still pending.

In recent times six luxurious buildings have come up in Bangalore and all of them are fully booked.

May be your plot is enter into B register because of many reason. Now the problem is that you cannot be sale the site, cannot get bank loan. You will not get house loan approved and you cannot convert it to legal A khata.

Have you just booked the flat after making the full payment or did the builder gave you the Conveyance deed that the flat has been registered in your name if not then kindly do a survey about the owner of the land in which the flat is coming up, what are the out going payments done by the builders and do the builder have the right over the land.

Recently the Bangalore Metro Rail Construction Ltd has received a notice issued by the Commissioner for not paying tax on time. The reason for not paying the tax on time is that the number of commuters in metro has deteroirated and this has reduced the revenue of the metro services.

There will be a good demand for properties near the Metro Rail lines. It will definitely raise the level of urbanization in the city.

If you have completed all the formalities and paid the complete amount according to the deal, then it is illegal to hold your property registration papers by the owner. You should get the help of a lawyer to tackle this unlawful situation. You can also file a case in the police station.

Hi Kanthi, it is really sad that the lake is full of plaster of paris, reason is the immersion of the idols during the time of Durga Puja and Ganesh Chaturthi it has made the lake water lacks in green water. The BBMP made a seperate tank for the immersion of the idols which also lead to a huge problem to the people.

The blame is on Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board for giving illegal connection, if the water supply in that area is not possible then should supply water through tankers.

It is better if you avoid wooden flooring as it creates a lot of noise from heavy footsteps. Also, it doesn’t suit for places of loud music and the wood squeaks at certain places.

Also, if there is smoking allowed in the Pool Room, using carpets isn’t a good practice for the obvious reasons. If you are hell bent on using woods, they Maple Wood Flooring is apt for the complete setup.
