The Karnataka state administration has ordered the cancellation of 1,100 development sites in Mysuru, valued at approximately Rs 2,000 crore.
The Karnataka cabinet issued an order to scrap 1,100 proposed sites in the historic city of Mysuru. The projects, which together were estimated to cost around Rs 2,000 crore, will no longer proceed under the current plan.
State officials said the decision was taken after a review of the proposals, citing concerns over financial viability and alignment with broader development goals. The cancellation affects a range of schemes, from infrastructure upgrades to commercial ventures.
The move is expected to free up significant public funds, which the government plans to redirect toward priority sectors such as health, education and rural development. No further details on the specific sites or the timeline for reallocating the resources have been released.
Stakeholders, including contractors and local businesses, have been advised to submit formal queries to the department handling the cancellation. The administration has assured that all contractual obligations will be settled in accordance with existing regulations.
