Referring to a recent Government Order on shifting a Special Cell constituted for executing the provisions of Article 371(J) of the Constitution that offered special status to Kalyana Karnataka region, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai has said that the cell will shortly be shifted to Kalaburagi from Bengaluru.
Speaking to mediapersons at the airport here on Tuesday, he said that an additional ₹1,500 crore will be provided to Kalyana Karnataka Region Development Board (KKRDB) after March and a detailed project report will be prepared for the amount.
“An order has already been issued with regard to shifting the Special Cell to Kalaburagi and it will start functioning shortly. Besides, the detailed project report for the additional ₹1,500 crore that I had promised for KKRDB is being prepared. The additional amount will be over and above the regular ₹1,500 crore allocated to KKRDB. The board should spend the regular amount within the stipulated time so that the additional amount can also be released immediately,” Mr. Bommai said.
