VUDA to go ahead with auction

Staff Reporter

Auction of row houses at Rushikonda on October 5 and plots in various layouts on October 11 and 12 will take place as scheduled.

VUDA Vice-Chairman N. Yuvaraj told reporters on Monday that so far 45 applications were received for the 65 row houses and only six for the 41 B type units.

Similarly for the 140 plots 272 applications have been received. He said the last date for receiving applications was September 30 and more applications were expected.

However, those applying online should submit hard copy along with DD. No application will be received on the date of auction.

He made it clear that for houses/plots that received single application no auction would be conducted and further action will be informed to the applicants.

The venue of the auction will be informed to applicants later.

The status of applications will also be informed to them online from September 27 onwards. Auction will be taken up for each of the row houses and plots separately.

Fraudulent allotment

Dr. Yuvaraj said notices would be issued soon to persons who had been fraudulently allotted land in 93 cases involving assigned land or in the name of compensating for road-widening. It would be a long drawn out process and had to be fought legally but the aim would be to return to the people what belonged to them, he said.

Huge mounds of garbage, dirty toilets, freely roaming cattle and encroached pathways... these issues at K.R. Market irked Mayor B.S. Sathyanarayana.

He was in the market, as part of his weekly intensive cleaning drive, on Monday. Around 1,000 students and teachers from Krishna International College participated. They were divided into 20 teams — each team had 50 students who assisted Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike’s gangmen and pourakarmikas. Last week, students of APS College participated.

Noticing the rotting fruits, vegetables and flowers in the market’s ground floor, he warned the shopkeepers against throwing the waste outside.

He also warned them against encroaching public spaces in the market.

Salem visit

City in-charge Minister Ramalinga Reddy, Mr. Satyanarayana and BBMP councillors will visit Hanjir Biotech plant in Salem on Wednesday. The company will be establishing a similar plant in Rajarajeshwarinagar where the BBMP has already allotted 15 acres of land. This will help the BBMP tackle the solid waste problem to a certain extent, he added.
