Punjab offers Rs.15 mn per acre for Mohali airport land

Chandigarh, March 20 (IANS) The Punjab government Thursday decided to offer a lump sum compensation of Rs.15 million ($372,671) per acre to farmers whose land will be acquired for the Mohali international airport project, being set up near here. This is the highest-ever compensation being offered for land acquisition by the state government to farmers.
Over 300 acres of land is being acquired by the Punjab government for the international airport project, which is an extension of the civil and defence airport at Chandigarh.
A government spokesman said a compensation of nearly Rs.4.6 billion is expected to be paid to farmers whose land near Mohali town will be acquired.
Giving further concessions, the state cabinet said the affected farmers would also get a waiver of registration fee and stamp duty on the land that they buy in the state with the compensation money.
The land will be acquired within two years.
They would also be entitled for the facility of a power connection for tubewell on priority anywhere in Punjab where they choose to buy land.
The spokesman said that the full amount of compensation would be given to farmers by March 31 this year to speed up the land acquisition project.

Land acquisition cost goes up
Revised acquisition cost to be ratified by the KIADB
Aerospace SEZ coming up on 918 acres of land
BANGALORE: The compensation amount for agriculture land to be acquired for the aerospace cluster special economic zone at Devanahalli is likely to go up with farmers and the government coming to an understanding on the cost of acquisition.
It is reliably learnt that the acquisition cost per acre is likely to go up from Rs. 30 lakh to Rs. 55 lakh in Bangalore Rural district and from Rs. 35 lakh per acre to Rs. 75 lakh in Bangalore Urban district.
Sources in the Government said that an understanding with the farmers of Devanahalli was arrived at a meeting on Saturday though the acquisition cost had to be ratified by the Karnataka Industrial Area Development Board (KIADB).
The farmers have been given the option to either accept compensation in cash or retain 8,500 sq ft. of developed land for every acre that they part with.
Demand
The farmers had been demanding a higher compensation ever since the rate was notified in 2007 with an acre of land in rural and urban districts being awarded Rs. 30 lakh and Rs. 35 lakh respectively.
They had pointed out that the rate fixed for their land was far less than the prevailing market price in the area.
The aerospace SEZ is coming up on 918 acres of land in Singalli, Hunusuru and Dummanahalli in Bangalore Urban district and Battramaranahalli, Jannahalli, Kowadadasanahalli, Baladimmanahalli and Betkote village coming under Bangalore Rural district.
Farmers’ meet
Raithara Horata Samithi convener D.S. Gowda told The Hindu that those farmers who are likely to lose their land met at Battramaranahalli village in Devanahalli taluk on Tuesday to discuss the issue, and that the cash compensation would be accepted. He, however, said that the farmers were not happy about the quantum of developed land to be given to the farmers if they chose to take land instead of cash.
“We are seeking 9,600 sq ft of developed land as against 8,500 sq ft, which has been offered to farmers,” Mr. Gowda said.
While demanding employment opportunities for locals in the industries that are coming up on the land they part with, the farmers also said that Government should look at different regions for setting up industries. “We have lost enough land in the area for development, and more land should not be acquired in the area,” he added.

Shimoga airport: Land acquisition
The City will soon appear in the aviation map of the nation, as Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa will lay the foundation stone for the proposed airport at Sogane village on Friday.

The airport will come up in 650 acre plot. Land acquisition process for the proposed airport has been completed in August 2007 and approved by the Civil Aviation Ministry. Earlier the airport was planned near Ayanur village but considering the land acquisition problem it was shifted to Sogane. For the proposed airport 662.38 acre land has been acquired in and around Sogane, of which 135 acre belong to the private parties.

More than 300 bagair hukum farmers were cultivating the lands belonging to the government. A compensation of Rs 20.13 crore has already been provided to the farmers who have lost their land to the airport project.

The government has decided to provide Rs 7 lakh compensation per acre for irrigated land in Sogane and Rs 6 lakh for dry land for regular cultivators. For the first time in the State even bagair hukum cultivators have been compensated in Sogane. This endeavour of the Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa, who was the DyCM then needs to be applauded.

For small and marginal farmers who were bagair hukum cultivators it was decided to provide Rs 2 lakh compensation per acre and a ceiling of Rs 4 lakh was fixed.

Airport in Shimoga is a dream project of Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa and the issue was highlighted in the BJP’s election campaign also. The airport is expected to result in an influx of investment in the region and create employment generation activities. As the district is dotted with tourist spots like Jog falls, air connectivity will attract more tourists.

The Shimoga airport will be implemented by consortium of Hyderabad based Maytas Infra and NCC Infra.

The construction work will be undertaken through public-private participation mode and the promoters are expected to pump Rs 100 crore for the project. The construction is expected to be completed by the year 2010. Survey work in the place is on.

Land acquisition: a govt on solid
At a time when land acquisition by state governments for industrial projects is generating controversies, Punjab Government has acquired almost 7,000 acres in the last one year without even a murmur of dissent. In addition, most of this land is arable — an argument often used to vilify land acquisition. The state Government is about to finalise acquisition of another 3,000 acres.

It is not as if Punjab has never faced land acquisition protests. Not long ago, several projects here were left in abeyance due to paucity of land. A notable example is that of the DLF SEZ in Amritsar. Despite having the mandate of PM Manmohan Singh, it never took off.

The change can be attributed to the new acquisition policy, which was adopted by the state Government when the Akali Dal-BJP combine came to power last year. Under this policy, it was decided that the land would be acquired at the prevailing market price. More importantly, the policy announced that a three-member team would be constituted, comprising the district magistrate, MLA and MP of the area, who would determine the market price after talking directly to the farmers. In addition, the Government provided for a 30 per cent displacement allowance. This ensured that complaints of a low market price and not having accounted for future escalations (as witnessed in the land acquisition controversy for Nagpur airport) were prevented.

The policy also provided that if displaced people decide to invest their compensation in buying land elsewhere in Punjab, they will be exempted from stamp duty on initial purchase and entitled to a free tubewell connection.

The efficacy of this policy was soon proved by the smooth acquisition of 310 acres of land for the international airport at Mohali. The process, which required acquisition of land from 175 farmers, was completed expeditiously with farmers being paid a record compensation of Rs 1.50 crore per acre.

Subsequently, the Government also acquired 2,500 acres of land for Guru Gobind Singh Oil Refinery at Bathinda, a joint venture between HPCL and the Mittal Group. Around 2,213 acres of land was acquired for Talwandi Sabbo, touted as the biggest thermal plant in the country. Another 1,000 acres were acquired for a thermal plant in Goindwal Sahib, 2,000 acres for a thermal plant in Rajpura and 2,640 acres for a power plant in Muktsar. The new policy has also been successful in solving earlier controversies. For example, acquisition of 376 acres of land by textile major Trident Group near Barnala had set off a serious agitation during the previous government’s tenure. But the situation came under control after compensation was offered to farmers under this scheme.

Centre should take lesson from Punjab on land
JALANDHAR: Claiming that the land acquisition process in the state was most peaceful, Sukhbir Badal, President of ruling Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Saturday said that union government should take lesson from Punjab in this regard.

"After SAD-BJP took over in Punjab, more than 7,000 acre of land was acquired and there was no protest from farmers because ample compensation was given to them", Junior Badal told reporters while giving detail of the land acquisition in the state.
Be it Singur, Haryana or any other state, everywhere farmers protested against the land acquisition causing obstruction in the industrial growth of the country, but in Punjab the acquisition process was very peaceful, unlike in the previous rule of congress in the state, when there was massive protest launched by the farmers against the land acquisition in Malwa region of the state, Sukhbir added.
He revealed that land acquisition process for constructing an express high way between Jalandhar and Mohali Airport was already on and the project would begin by January 2009.
Even land acquisition process to construct Pathankot-Ajmer express high way would also begin soon and after the completion of project, exporters of Punjab would be able to transport their goods directly to Kandla Dry port through a shortest possible route, Sukhbir claimed.
Making a scathing attach on union government, Sukhbir accused the former for creating virtual financial chaos. Be it controlling of inflation, plight of stock exchange, UPA government has proved big failure and to divert the attention of people from its failure, centre was trying to get credit of Indo-US Nuclear treaty.
Asked whether the state government would stake its claim for installation of Nuclear Power Plant in the state, Sukhbir said "since Punjab is a border-state, it will not be safe to install a Nuclear Power Plant in the state".
