BANGALORE: The Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) commenced selling copies of the Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP) at its headquarters in the city from Friday.

Only, the document, which contains details of the land use pattern and BDA plans will cost Rs 10,000! BDA Commissioner M K Shankarlinge Gowda told this paper that the reason for the high price is because the book comprised detailed maps in colour with all the associated details spelt out.

The book is available only in the headquarters on Kumara Krupa Road. “The book is a complete guide for the people. It’s once in a lifetime opportunity for all to possess the Plan. We have spent Rs 26 crore on finalising the master plan,” Gowda said.

It includes a graphic description of all the BDA properties in the City and also explains how the BDA will develop the identified areas.

One can get a clear picture of the commercial, residential and integrated layouts. On the other hand, in other places like Anekal and Ramanagaram, the development agency are charging Rs 10,000 to 15,000 for each copy.
