The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Chief Commissioner, Tushar Giri Nath on Wednesday directed executive engineers of the Storm-water Drain (SWD) Department to identify fresh encroachments in ten days.
The development comes after the Karnataka High Court issued directives about rajakaluves and lake encroachments. Mr. Giri Nath, holding a meeting with officials, said action will be initiated against officials in case of delay in clearing encroachments. The officials have been instructed to press local tahsildars to issue notices and conduct surveys.
