BANGALORE: Putting behind himself the Lok Sabha poll debacle, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is now set to implement the Akrama-Sakrama scheme for regularising building bylaw deviations in various cities, including Bangalore. This is expected to help mobilise resources for the cities’ infrastructure.

Siddaramaiah on Tuesday chaired a high-level meeting that approved the implementation of the Karnataka Town and Country Planning (Regularisation of Unauthorised Developments) Rules 2013, also known as  Akrama-Sakrama, without any further delay.

The final notification is expected to be issued within a week, after which the scheme will come into effect, sources in Urban Development Department told Express.
