Mysore/Mysuru: In an attempt to stop illegal acts such as land grabbing and encroachments, the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA), at its Council Meeting held yesterday, decided to constitute a Task Force to safeguard all its properties and land holdings.
MUDA Chairman H.V. Rajeev said that it has been found that MUDA lands have been encroached upon in several cases, while in some other cases, illegal buildings have come up on its lands. Besides, MUDA has been receiving numerous complaints on fake land/ site records. As such, it has been decided to constitute a Task Force comprising Police personnel, on the lines of the one at Bengaluru’s Bangalore Development Authority (BDA), to safeguard all MUDA properties from encroachments and grabbing, he said.

Apart from this, the issue of Group Housing Schemes aimed at providing shelter at affordable rates to the needy too was discussed,” he said and added that the meeting approved 104 out of the 401 subjects that were on the agenda.
