The resolutions are likely to be tabled during the ongoing legislature session, probably on Tuesday itself, the sources said. The cabinet is also said to have cleared the ‘Greater Bengaluru Governance Bill 2024’. 

A four-member committee led by former chief secretary B S Patil, formed to restructure the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike, submitted its report to the government earlier this month.

In the draft bill, the committee is said to have proposed the creation of a Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) with planning and financial powers to govern the city, and it also provides for multiple corporations and makes provision for up to 400 wards. 

Amid the ongoing controversy on NEET, Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar had recently urged the Centre to scrap the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test and allow states to conduct their own entrance tests.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah had earlier said that the census and delimitation processes will begin soon after the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. (with PTI inputs)
