Only 9 acres for Bengaluru's Hebbal transit hub is a great betrayal: BJP
Bengaluru: Opposition BJP slammed the govt's decision to allot only nine acres of land in Hebbal for the Metro rail project instead of 45 acres required for constructing a multi-modal transit hub. Calling it a "great betrayal", the party demanded that the govt change its decision and not buckle under pressure from the real-estate lobby. Bangalore North MP and Union minister of state for MSME and labour Shobha Karandlaje, in a letter addressed to chief minister Siddaramaiah, urged the govt to reconsider its decision. "The project falls within Bangalore North Lok Sabha constituency and is critical for tackling the city's congestion. The land BMRCL has requested is one of the largest parcels available at such a prime location. If it is diverted for any other purpose, there cannot be a bigger injustice and crime besides choking the entry point of the city. Further, the failure to hand over the land will also negate industrial growth in north Bengaluru, seen as an industrial corridor," the letter said.

BMRCL also agreed to bear the compensation cost of over Rs 500 crore for acquiring the land in prime Hebbal area. Deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar and industries minister MB Patil discussed the issue and promised to prioritise the transit project. However, BMRCL made a U-turn by drastically reducing the land requirement from 45 to 9 acres. This was communicated during a high-level committee meeting chaired by chief secretary Shalini Rajneesh Monday. The committee has now directed BMRCL to approach KIADB to seek transfer of the reduced land parcel. Bangalore Central MP PC Mohan said, "The 45 acres of land in Hebbal is critical for multiple Metro lines (Phases 2A, 2B, 3 and 3A) and the suburban rail project. Any dilution of land to suit private builders will cripple Bengaluru's future mobility. Don't surrender to real-estate lobbies."

Domestic buyers power real estate boom in Kochi
Kochi: The city's real estate sector is undergoing a significant shift, with a growing number of domestic buyers opting for premium and mid-segment flats for residential purposes. Earlier, the market was largely NRI-driven, with apartments often purchased as investments and left vacant or rented. Now, builders report a growing trend of more local buyers—especially from Ernakulam and nearby districts—moving permanently to the city for work or business. According to RERA-registered builders, the buyer ratio has shifted from 30:70 (local:NRI) to 60:40 in favour of domestic buyers. "Earlier, 80% of our buyers were NRIs. Now it's below 40%, with 60% being locals planning to settle in Kochi," said Ravi Jacob, Chairman of Trine Holdings. Real estate developers attribute this to a shift in residential culture. "Most flat buyers today are end-users, with very few purchasing them an investment option. In nearly all our projects, the occupancy rate has reached 90%, which reflects this trend," said V Sunilkumar, MD of Asset Homes. Even domestic buyers are increasingly choosing premium projects—especially 3 BHK units priced over Rs 1 crore—equipped with high-end amenities. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Could Be the Best Time to Trade Gold in 5 Years IC Markets Learn More Undo Many finance these purchases by selling off ancestral or rural properties, leveraging improved purchasing power and capital gains benefits. "Young couples are increasingly prioritizing access to premium facilities, with easy access to quality educational institutions and advanced healthcare available in urban areas," said former K-RERA member M P Mathews. He added that the state's policy of encouraging private universities and colleges is also a contributing factor, leading to land acquisitions in rural areas, with former landowners reinvesting in urban housing, reinforcing the trend of end-use purchases. The boom in commercial activity and job creation in tier-2 cities like Kochi is another key driver. Recognizing these shifts, builders are focusing on mid-segment 2 and 3 BHK flats, strategically located near Metro stations, schools, hospitals, and arterial roads. "Metros like Bengaluru are becoming saturated, prompting business and IT sectors to shift to cities like Kochi boosting its economic profile and enhancing the purchasing power of local buyers," said Edward George, president of CREDAI's Cochin chapter.
