Unregulated tourism threatens Karnataka's eco-sensitive zones
Author : PNT Bureau
In Karnataka, only 40% of homestays are officially registered, leading to a surge in unregulated accommodations, particularly in the Western Ghats. This scenic region, popular for eco-tourism, has seen a rise in unregistered homestays, many of which operate without oversight, raising concerns about safety, legality, and environmental impact. Some influential individuals exploit the lack of regulation by running full-fledged resorts disguised as homestays to avoid stricter commercial property regulations. This unregulated growth poses risks such as revenue loss for the state, environmental degradation, and safety issues for tourists. The Karnataka government is under pressure to enforce stricter registration and inspection requirements to ensure that all homestays comply with state laws, protecting both the environment and visitors....

Property transactions in Pune delayed as Aadhaar Verification glitch disrupts e-registration system
Author : PNT Bureau
Property registrations in Pune and across Maharashtra have been disrupted by a technical glitch in the Aadhaar verification system, affecting e-registrations since August 6.

Developers, who typically use e-registration for multiple properties, are particularly impacted, as manual processing slows transactions. The registration department is working to resolve the issue but has not provided a timeline, leaving property buyers and developers in a state of uncertainty as they await the restoration of online services....
