Pulakeshinagar – Hosabommanahalli Bazaar Cross Area Land Acquisition for Metro Project

Bengaluru, April 28, 2026: The Government of Karnataka has issued a final notification under Section 28(4) of the KIAD Act, confirming acquisition of select properties for a metro rail project.

Key Concern Areas Identified:
The acquisition is specifically concentrated in Pulakeshinagar Ward, covering Hosabommanahalli Bazaar Cross (Hosabommanahalli Bazaar Road stretch) in Bengaluru North. The notification lists individual residential houses, private properties, and small built structures located along this stretch.

• Total extent: 454.10 sq. meters

• Nature of properties: Predominantly residential units and private holdings

• Location sensitivity: Dense, inner-road settlement area with existing habitation and access roads

Why this Area Matters:
Unlike large vacant land acquisitions, this notification impacts already developed neighbourhood pockets, meaning:

• Direct impact on existing residents and households

• Potential disruption to local roads and daily movement

• Increased importance of fair compensation and proper execution

Ground-Level Implication:
The Hosabommanahalli Bazaar Cross stretch is a compact and active locality, and even a limited acquisition here can significantly affect residents, access, and surrounding properties.

NammaWard Insight:
Residents in and around Pulakeshinagar should:

• Verify if their property is included in the notification schedule

• Check property measurements and ownership details

• Stay informed on compensation process and next steps

This marks the final stage of acquisition, after which project execution is expected to proceed.
