"On Humanitarian Grounds": Karnataka To Rehouse Families Hit By Bengaluru Demolition Drive
The Karnataka government on Monday decided to provide alternate housing to those "genuine" homeless whose illegally constructed houses or sheds were demolished by authorities at Kogilu in the northern part of Bengaluru during a demolition drive.
The relief, said the government, was based on humanitarian grounds.
The demolition of houses at Kogilu's Waseem Layout and Fakir Colony on December 20 was carried out by Bengaluru Solid Waste Management Limited to clear encroachments for a proposed solid waste processing unit.
