Henceforth, citizens need not run from pillar to post or grease the palm of officials to get the MUDA building plan approved. If all documents submitted are perfect, then people can collect the licence to build the house within a day. This single window Over The Counter-Service (OTC-S) Kiosk established in the first floor of MUDA Office, adjacent to Bank of Baroda, was opened this morning by Co-operation and District Minister S.T. Somashekar in the presence of MUDA Chairman H.V. Rajeev, MUDA Commissioner Dr. D.B. Natesh and MLA L.Nagendra.
