Members of Citizens For Bengaluru and other residents’ welfare associations on Saturday submitted their objections regarding the new zoning regulations to the joint director of Town and Country Planning at MS Building.
The residents took the copies of the petitions signed by more than 6,000 people and handed them over to M S Shanthala, joint director of Town and Country Planning.
The delegation asked Shanthala when the final draft will be out but got no answer. Later, Sneha Nandihal, a member of the delegation told reporters that if the draft rule is implemented, it will ruin the tranquillity of residential areas as it permits commercial activities on 30-foot-wide roads.
She said it is against the existing rules as well as the high court directions to ensure that no commercial activities take place in residential areas with a road width of 40 feet or less.
