AMENDMENT OF TOWN & COUNTRY PLANNING ACT, 2020 TO BOOST REAL ESTATE IN KARNATAKA
Very Recently, The Real Estate Sector has come to a standstill even before the COVID-19 pandemic occurred due to the implementation of Demonetization, GST & RERA laws in the country. After the Lock down of country due to Covid-19, huge number of migrants who were employed as labors in the real estate sector have returned back to their natives leaving the real estate sector in a complete crunch. Thus, Karnataka Govt. has brought into effect big changes to property & allied land laws to give a major boost to the Real Estate Sector which is giving major contribution to the state Exchequer & GDP of the Country.

Hi, The Hon'ble SC in the n the matter of Dr. Janet Jeyapaul v. SRM University & Others has held that private unaided educational institution do serve public function, and hence the Trust can said to perform public function and hence the land cannot be allotted to do any other public purpose. Further, the proposed acquisition of the land for the construction of the road will duly hamper the ability of the institution to perform its public function and hence it should not be allowed. The state cannot acquire the educational institutions land, without making alternate and suitable arrangements.
