KARNATAKA LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY

SIXTEENTH LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY

TENTH SESSION

THE KARNATAKA MUNICIPALITIES (AMENDMENT) BILL, 2026

(LA Bill No. 17 of 2026)

A Bill further to amend the Karnataka Municipalities Act, 1964.

Whereas it is expedient further to amend the Karnataka Municipalities Act,

1964 (Karnataka Act 22 of 1964), for the purposes hereinafter appearing;

Be it enacted by the Karnataka State Legislature in the seventy seventh year

of the Republic of India as follows, namely:-

1. Short title and Commencement.– (1) This Act may be called the

Karnataka Municipalities (Amendment) Act, 2026

(2) It shall come into force at once.

2. Substitution of section 177.- In the Karnataka Municipalities Act, 1964

(Karnataka Act 22 of 1964), for section 177, the following shall be substituted,

namely:-

“177. Power to declare any street as public street.- (1) If a private street

including the drains are in such a poor condition that endangers public safety and

health, the Commissioner or Chief officer may, with respect to a private street, on

his own accord or upon a request by the owners of the said private street or the

owners of the buildings and lands fronting or abutting on such a street, inform

his intention to declare the said private street or part thereof, a public street, by

a public notice and notice to such owners. Thereupon, such owners or anyone

else interested, may give objections, if any, against the said intention within one

month of the date of service of such the public notice by affixture. Upon

considering the objections if any, the Commissioner or Chief Officer may declare

such street or part the street to be a public street:

Provided that, in case the private street falls in more than one Municipality

then the concerned Commissioners or Chief Officers shall issue the notice and

thereupon declare the street or part thereof as a public street in respect to his

jurisdiction.

Provided further that, the private street to be declared as public street shall

have connectivity from the public road or public street.

(2) Where, a street or part of such street which was shown by the erstwhile

land owner as road in the registered deed of transfer or conveyance made by the

land owner and based upon which the abutting building sites were carved out by

the land owner, who has obtained the benefit of such road or street by making the

sale or transfer of abutting building sites and such a road is declared as public

street under sub-section (1), the land owner, shall not be eligible for any type of

compensation under the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land

Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 (Central Act 30 of 2013)

or any other law, including Development Rights Certificate under section 14-B of

the Karnataka Town and Country Planning Act, 1961 (Karnataka Act 11 of 1963).

Explanation I: “Erstwhile land owner” means the person in whose name

the agriculture or converted or relevant land stood at the time of sale or transfer

or conveyance of the sites and includes all those persons claiming under or

through him.

Explanation II: “Public street” means any street, road, square, court, alley,

passage or riding path over which the public have a right of way maintained by

the Municipal Council or Government or by any public authority, whether a

thorough fare or not and includes,-

(a) the roadway over any public bridge or causeway;

(b) the footway attached to any such street public bridge or causeway; and

the land, whether covered or not by any pavement verandah or other

structure which lies on either side of the roadway up to the boundaries

of the adjacent property, whether that property is private property or a

property belonging to the Government or the Municipal Council.”

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

It is considered necessary further to amend the Karnataka Municipalities

Act, 1964 (Karnataka Act 22 of 1964) to,-

(i) empower the Commissioner or Chief Officer to proactively intervene and

take over private streets and drains if they are in poor condition and

endanger public safety and health;

(ii) allow the declaration process to be initiated on the authority's own accord

or upon a request by the owners of the private street or abutting

properties; and

(iii) prevent erstwhile land owners from claiming compensation or

Development Rights Certificate for the street land.

Hence, the Bill.

FINANCIAL MEMORANDUM

There is no extra expenditure involved in the proposed legislative measure.
