BANGALORE: The Government is likely to relax green belt area around the city.

Sindhia said that the Government will take a decision on extending the green belt around Bangalore after going through the Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP) for Bangalore prepared by the Bangalore Development Authority in collaboration of the French Government.

‘‘There are suggestions to remove green belt areas in some parts of the city while retaining in other parts. The Government will take a decision soon.’’

The CDP revised for every ten years gives a picture of how the city would grow in the next decade. The previous CDP was submitted in 1994.
