U.P. Government paying more compensation to
farmers than the Central Government for acquiring their land for schemes
State’s rehabilitation and resettlement policy better
than Haryana and other States
Land acquisition policy formulated by State
Government is the most progressive and farmer friendly policy of the country
Several anti-social elements having vested
interests trying to mislead farmers against State Government
Lucknow: 16 May 2011
A Spokesman of the State Government said that the
compensation given within Uttar Pradesh, during
the last 4-5 years,
was more than the compensation offered by Central
Government or
their undertakings for the acquisition of land for
their various projects.
Yet certain anti-social elements, having vested
interests, were trying
to mislead farmers against the State Government.
The Spokesman
said that the land acquisition policy, formulated
by the State
Government, is the most progressive and farmer
friendly policy of the
country.
The Spokesman said that the farmers were being
paid Rs. 44
lakh per acre compensation on the acquisition of
the land in Noida, Rs.
36 lakh per acre in Greater Noida, between Rs. 22
lakh to Rs. 35 lakh
per acre for land acquisition under Yamuna
Express-Way Authority (in
various districts). Moreover, the rate of
compensation had also been
properly revised over the years. During 2006-07,
about Rs. 20 lakh
per acre compensation was being paid by Noida
Authority, which had
been revised to Rs. 44 lakh per acre during the
five years. Likewise,
the rate of compensation in Greater Noida had also
been revised
upwards.
The Spokesman said that if these rates were
compared with the
rate of compensation being offered by the Ministry
of Railway,
Government of India to the farmers of Raebareli
for setting up of Rail
Coach Factory there, then the picture would become
much clear. The
land owners of Dalmau tehsil were being paid a
compensation of Rs.
2.9 lakh to Rs. 4.35 lakh per acre only. The rate
of compensation was
even much less in the Lalganj tehsil of Raebareli,
which was between
Rs. 3.37 lakh to Rs. 3.7 lakh per acre only. The
Spokesman said that if
it was compared with the compensation rate given
to the farmers of
district Mahamaya Nagar during year 2008-09, then
it would be clear
that the land owners of Mahamaya Nagar got better
rates. They were
given compensation at the rate of Rs. 15 lakh per acre.
The Spokesman said that the compensation rate for
the
acquisition of land for Yamuna Express-Way in Agra
district was about
Rs. 24 lakh per acre, whereas the compensation
rate being offered by
National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) for
acquisition of land for
the widening of NH-11 in Agra was between Rs. 9.6
lakh per acre to
Rs. 22 lakh per acre. The Ghaziabad Development
Authority had been
offering a compensation of Rs. 44 lakh per acre in
Ghaziabad district,
while the NHAI had been offering a compensation of
Rs. 32 lakh per
acre only for acquisition of land for the
construction of Eastern
Peripheral Express-Way. Similarly, the State
Government had been
offering better compensation for acquisition of
land than the Central
Government in the same districts.
Following are the attractive provisions
incorporated in the
rehabilitation and resettlement policy of Uttar
Pradesh :-
1. Alternative of taking company’s share upto 25 per cent of the annual
assistance in case the land is acquired for a company.
2. Moreover, 7 per cent of the land for development to be given to farmers
after developing it properly.
3. One member of the family, whose land had been acquired, would be
given job in concessionaire company.
4. 17.5 per cent plots of the housing schemes to be reserved for farmers.
5. Farmers rendered marginal because of acquisition to be given
farm labourer’s daily wages for 500 days, while small farmers to be given the
same for 375 days.
6. Farm labourers related with land to be given wages of 625 days. The
Spokesman said that an amount of Rs. 20,000 per acre per annum was being
provided as annuity for a length of 33 years to the affected farmer whose land
had been acquired. It would be paid in addition to the compensation. It would
be given a fixed increase of Rs.600 every year, which would be payable in every
July. He said that if a farmer did not want to take the annuity, then he would
be paid one time amount of Rs. 2,40,000 per acre as rehabilitation subsidy. If
a company acquired the land, then the farmer would have the option to hold 25
per cent share of the land acquired by the company.
The Spokesman said that the legal process of land
acquisition had been mentioned in the Land Acquisition Act 1894. Under it, the award
of the acquired land is announced. It has also the provision of referring the
case to the courts to increase the compensation. But, under the current policy
of the Uttar Pradesh Government, the land owner is given compensation on the
basis of a contract through mutual
consent. The State Government had acquired land
during the previous years through consent of the land owners on the basis of a
contract. He said that the State Government was against the forcible
acquisition of the lands of the farmers.
The Spokesman said that under the rehabilitation
and resettlement policy, provisions had also been made for the proper development
of rural habitation being affected by the land acquisition, so that they also
got the benefit of modern facilities.
The Spokesman said that owing to various
facilities and the simplified procedure being adopted by the State Government,
the industrial development and investment process had been accelerated during
the last 4-5 years. He said that ample investments had been made in heavy,
small and medium industrial sectors in the State. He said that during the year
2007-08 a capital investment of Rs. 4917
crore was ensured, during 2008-09 it stood at Rs.
5276 crore and
during 2009-10 it increased to Rs. 11195 crore.
The Spokesman said
that the process of industrial development and
capital investment was
going on continuously within the State.
