Bengaluru: BDA recovers property worth Rs 300 crore at Nagawara

BENGALURU:

Bengaluru Development Authority

(

BDA

) officials on Tuesday recovered four acres of prime land worth

Rs 300 crore

in

Nagawara

, north Bengaluru. A building and sheds were erected there illegally.

A senior official said the recovery is probably the largest in BDA’s history when it comes to land value. “Unauthorised persons built a five-storeyed building there. We have not yet demolished the structure but removed the sheds and other encroachments,” he said.

In 1985, BDA passed a notification to acquire survey number 75 in Nagawara for forming HBR II Stage layout, and the related acquisition was done in 1988. While 1 acre and 26 guntas of land was used for constructing a Ring Road, four acres and 17 guntas were kept aside for the layout.
