Karnataka HC directs BDA to adhere to guidelines in cases involving authority

The Karnataka High Court directed the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) to strictly adhere to the circular/guidelines for cases involving the authority. The court noted systematic failure in conducting such cases and mandated that all legal notices, petitions, applications, summons, court orders, and judgments must be forwarded to the Chief Legal Officer on the same day or the next day. The BDA had challenged an order passed by a single bench on March 7, 2024, concerning land acquisition for a connecting road from Kanakapura to Banashankari and Banashankari VI Stage Layout.
