The Karnataka High Court issued a stay order on the construction of commercial complex of 115 shops at Gandhi Nagar in Belagavi city for not taking permission from the Belagavi Urban Development Authority (BUDA), on Thursday.

A division bench comprising Chief Justice Abhay S Oka and Justice SR Krishan Kumar was hearing public interest petition filed by Rafeeq Khanapuri.
