The Department of School Education and Literacy (DSEL) in Karnataka is proposing a new bill to register the properties of government schools, addressing a backlog of 18,791 unregistered lands. This follows a three-year campaign by the DSEL to protect school property from encroachment. The current situation has hindered development work and legal action against encroachers.
