23 years gone, farmers not paid for acquisition: Punjab and Haryana High Court -Saurabh Malik

-The Tribune

Chandigarh: Amid the agitation over the contentious farm laws when the Punjab Government is projecting itself as the champion of farmers’ rights, the Punjab and Haryana High Court has ruled that the “mighty state was required to be sensitive” towards the rights of poor farmers.

The admonition came after the state was caught sitting over the land of farmers for the last 23 years “without paying a penny as compensation”.

Rapping it for resorting to dilatory tactics, Justice Ajay Kshetarpal directed the state to pay costs of Rs 8 lakh to the petitioner-farmers. Directions were also issued to the state to pay for land utilisation at the current collector’s rate for the chunk acquired within three weeks.
