Govt To Confiscate Illegal Residential Layouts, Says Min

Issues instructions to DCs; Decision follows Supreme Court directions on December 17
Following Supreme Court directions, the state government is all set to crack the whip on illegal residential layouts by confiscating them.
On December 17, 2024, the Supreme Court had said unauthorised constructions cannot be legitimised merely due to administrative delays, passage of time or monetary investment. Post-construction violations too should trigger swift corrective action, including demolition of the illegal part and penalties for erring officials, the court stated.
On Friday, Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda said the order is applicable to only those layouts coming up now and in the future. "All DCs have been instructed to confiscate unauthorised layouts as the Supreme Court has cracked the whip against state governments. CM Siddaramaiah has also instructed us," he said.
