High Court stays another land acquisition by Pragya Kaushika

A day after the Supreme Court upheld the Allahabad High Court order quashing state acquisition of farm land in Shahberi, farmers of other villages that make Noida Extension announced they too would move court against acquisition of their land by the government. This is likely to put a spanner in the works of major building projects already underway in the area.

At a panchayat in Bisrakh village on Thursday, residents of Itehda, Bisrakh, Patwari and Chauganpur decided to approach the Allahabad High Court to reclaim their land. The villagers met at the residence of Ajay Pradhan, head of Bisrakh village.

“Bisrakh alone can claim 500 hectares of land which was acquired by the Greater Noida Authority. We approached builders like Stellar, Arden, Earth, Paramount, Valencia and Supertech, asking them to stop construction as they were building on our land, for which many of us have not even been compensated,” Pradhan said.

Manveer Bhati of Bisrakh village claimed that building projects in one-half of Noida Extension would come to a halt if all villagers who have not been compensated were to approach the judiciary.

“Villagers from Patwari, which has 450 acres in Noida Extension, and Chauganpur, which has 200 acres in the area, are taking hope from the Supreme Court decision and plan to go to court. We will meet again to chalk out a strategy and financial arrangements before doing so,” Bhati said.

Given the nervousness and panic that has gripped investors following the SC verdict, officials at the Greater Noida Authority are exercising extra caution while commenting on the issue.

“The majority of the villages have taken approximately 80% of the compensation. We will abide by the Supreme Court order. We will comment only after we read the order,” said Rama Raman, CEO, Greater Noida Authority.

Bhati countered this, saying if this had been the case, the Authority would have compensated villagers of Bisrakh too and stopped further land acquisition.
