other than those zoned for industrial purpose in the Outline

acquisition proceedings and taken possession of the land
in which are not industrial zones of Comprehensive
Development Plan areas for the formation of the
industrial estates, before 1-10-90. The same will be
regularized by reserving such areas for industrial use in
the revised Outline Development Plan or Comprehensive

2) New cases where Karnataka Industrial Areas Development

Board/KEONICS/ etc., which xxxxxxxxxxxxxx land;
(a) In respect of areas which KIADB/KEONICS, etc., wish
to acquire in future, they shall initiate acquisition
 proceedings only in prior consultation with the local
Planning/Urban Development Authorities or, in its
absence, the concerned Assistant Director of Town
Planning, so as to ensure that the lands earmarked for
non-industrial purposes, including the green belt, are not
notified for acquisition by these agencies.

(b) After making preliminary survey and selection of the

land for the intended use, the Commerce and Industries
Department should consult the Revenue Department to
ascertain whether the selected land or any part there of
has already-been earmarked by the State Government for
purposes of any State/Central Government
Department/Organization.

2. Adherence to the above procedure would ensure avoidance of

any conflict between the acquisition proceedings initiated/to be initiated
by different agencies under the Commerce and Industries Department,
Housing & Urban Development Department and the Revenue
Department. It would also ensure that unnecessary problems are not
faced by the allottees of industrial sites in getting necessary Urban Land
Ceiling permission in the areas where the ULCR Act is in force as well as
in getting building, water or power connections from the concerned
authorities due to the non-conforming nature of the land use.

3. Therefore all the Urban Development Authorities/Planning

Authorities in the State are directed to reserve the areas for industrial
use in the revised Outline Development Plans &or Comprehensive
Development Plans, wherever Industrial Promotion Organization like
Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Board/KEONICS/Karnataka
Small Scale Industries Development Corporation, etc., have completed
acquisition proceedings and taken possession of land in non-conforming
areas before 8.10.90 for the formation of the industrial estates and same
will be regularized by incorporating in revised Outline Development
