25,000 e-khatas ready for doorstep delivery: Dy CM DK Shivakumar
BENGALURU: Stating that the state government will deliver e-khatas to property owners at their doorstep as promised, Deputy Chief Minister and Bengaluru Development Minister DK Shivakumar said on Wednesday that the process is on in Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) limits and 25,000 e-khatas will be delivered from July 1. Addressing reporters here, Shivakumar said, 'We have designed a campaign for disbursal of e-khatas in Bengaluru. The campaign was kicked off on a pilot basis in Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda's Byatarayanapura constituency. As many as 25,000 e-khatas are ready and they will be delivered at the doorstep from July 1. There are around 25 lakh houses and only about five lakh people have uploaded their documents. The campaign will be held for a month.' On B-khatas, he said, 'This matter has been discussed at the cabinet meeting. We will make an announcement after looking into all legal aspects.' The DCM said that a meeting of Congress MLAs from the city on formation of corporations under the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) was held sometime ago. The matter will be discussed with Opposition leaders also. 'We will take a decision after taking them into confidence,' he added. On issues related to waste management in the city, he said under the Swachchaa Bengaluru initiative, BBMP has set up a helpline to help clear garbage. 'People can take photos of garbage dumped on footpaths or other places and send them to this number. Action will be taken within a week. On pothole filling work, he said funds have been sanctioned to MLAs,' said DCM. Referring to the white-topping project, he said it is going on in many places in the city and he had inspected the quality of work.

Mega-park plan gets funding boost from Bengaluru's civic body
Bengaluru: The forest department's move to create large lung spaces for fast-expanding Bengaluru received a boost Tuesday, with DK Shivakumar promising enough funds for the project. "We already have Cubbon Park and Lalbagh in the city. If the forest department is keen on developing forest areas within Bengaluru, I have already told the forest minister that funds will be made available from BBMP. Once these forest areas are developed into mega tree parks, they will not only benefit the public but also save forest lands from encroachment," Shivakumar said. Last week, the forest department took possession of 153 acres of reserve forest in Madappanahalli near Yelahanka and planned to convert that into a mega park for bustling north Bengaluru. Over the last two centuries since the creation of Lalbagh and Cubbon Park, Bengaluru hasn't had any other mega park. The DCM said mandatory directions have been given to schools and colleges to set up eco-clubs to create awareness on climate change. "Each club must have at least 25 students and select a location near schools to plant trees," he told students at the Environment Day event. Chief minister Siddaramaiah said destroying nature is nothing but destroying ourselves. "If we protect biodiversity in Western Ghats, it will protect us," he told students. Reiterating the message, My Life My Tree, Siddaramaiah urged children to plant more trees in the coming days. — Raksha R

Ganja worth Rs 85 lakh seized, 2 held
Prayagraj: Sleuths of the Special Task Force (Prayagraj unit) on Sunday arrested two members of an interstate drug peddling gang and seized 231 kg of ganja worth Rs 85 lakh. The arrest was made near Kesar Vatia on the Kanpur-Jhansi highway while the duo was planning to deliver a drug consignment to Bijnore. Police have also seized a DCM vehicle, one mobile and Rs 330 cash from their possession. Those arrested were Jai Prakash Paswan and Rahul Kumar of Darbhanga (Bihar) and Bijnore (UP) respectively. They were booked under sections 8/20/29 of the NDPS Act. A team of STF, acting upon specific inputs that members of the gang were smuggling illegal ganja from Raipur (Chhattisgarh) to Bijnore (UP), intercepted a DCM vehicle and found the drugs hidden inside sacks of fish grains. The gang used to smuggle drugs from Chhattisgarh to UP towns for hefty profits, police said adding that search is on for Pawan Pandey of Pratapgarh and Yusuf Ansari of Bareilly, who were the masterminds of the gang.
