More than 500 farmers from Kuditini, Harigandoni and Veeniveerapura launched a padayatra from Kuditini to Bangalore  on Friday under the banner of Bhoo Santhrasathara Horata Samithi. The farmers are demanding a compensation of Rs 77 lakh per acre for the land they parted with for Arcelor-Mittal to set up a steel plant.

The padayatra will culminate on November 3. On the next day, the farmers will stage a protest in front of chief minister B S Yeddyurappa's residence. Former chief minister and JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy, senior Congress leader Siddaramaiah and CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury will participate. The district administration had agreed on Rs 16 lakh per acre for plots within 500 metres of the national highway and Rs 12 lakh per acre for plots toward the interiors. But the farmers were unhappy with the price as the Kuditini region would come under the steel zone and was also located close to both the upcoming airport near Sirwara and Jindal airport. Various political parties and organizations are also extending their support to the farmers' protest. The padayatra was flagged off by Karnataka Pratha Raitha Sangha leader Maruthi Manpade.
