1. Habitat planning in Bihar has gone haywire. The concept of Town Planning has vanished. The Regional Development Authorities, whose primary job is to plan cities worth living in, have taken a ringside seat. Constructions go on unabated on a phenomenon known as 'assumed deemed permission'. There is a fine-tuned arrangement to present a building plan, and it does not matter whether it conforms to the law or not, submit it, then wait for a prescribed period to pass and thereafter assume that the plan has been passed.
