SC May Reject Akrama Sakrama: Karnataka Minister

Karnataka's Minister for Urban Development, Byrathi Basavaraj, has expressed the possibility of the Supreme Court rejecting the Akrama Sakrama case. This legal framework aims to regularise unauthorised constructions and developments in the state. The minister's statement indicates a cautious outlook on the fate of the Akrama Sakrama policy as it awaits the Supreme Court's decision. The Akrama Sakrama scheme, if rejected, could have implications for property owners who have undertaken unauthorised constructions, as the policy provides a pathway for regularisation by paying penalties. Minister Basavaraj's remarks suggest a degree of uncertainty regarding the policy's acceptance at the highest judicial level. The Akrama Sakrama case has been a subject of legal scrutiny and debates, with stakeholders closely monitoring its progress. If the Supreme Court decides against the policy, it could impact the regularisation process for numerous properties and necessitate a reevaluation of unauthorised constructions in Karnataka. The minister's cautious anticipation reflects the complexities surrounding the Akrama Sakrama case and its potential consequences. As the legal proceedings unfold, the Supreme Court's decision will significantly influence the regulatory landscape for unauthorised constructions in Karnataka.
