BDA to be just a click away soon


BANGALORE: Henceforth, one need not go to the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) office to get information about their properties or other issues, as the BDA will answer most of the queries online.

The BDA is launching its new interactive website soon.

The BDA will also post various application forms related to the department on the website. One can download them and use them in their transactions with the department.

The process of filling the different forms and the samples of the filled forms would be posted on the site.

However, one has to pay the fee fixed for the form at the time of filing the forms.

According to an official, these measures will reduce the interference of middlemen and bring in transparency.

Details of all projects that are undertaken by the BDA, the status of the present projects and details of the proposed projects will also be posted on the website in addition to projects already executed.

The BDA computer department is procuring the relevant information from its different departments, and it might take some time to convert it into a digital form.

One of the officials said, “We have to verify all the data that we have and it is a tedious process.

We have set a target to complete all the work pertaining to the website by January 15 and we might launch the new website in another two months.” The BDA is also in the process of converting the records maintained in its different departments into digital form. The general public will also be able to obtain the details of their properties at the kiosk that will be set up at the entrance of the BDA main office.
