Noida Extension Farmers want Additional Compensation as Out-of-Court Settlement
After the Allahabad High Court order on Noida extension and gave an option of out of court settlement to farmers, the Greater Noida Authority has started speaking with farmers in the area.
Farmers from various villages met on Wednesday to discuss the issue. Most farmers in the area want an additional compensation of Rs 700-850 per sq metre. One farmer said the authority has offered to increase the compensation by Rs 500 per sq metre.
Farmers were given Rs 850 per sq metre when their land was acquired between 2008 and 2009. “We are also asking for our abadi land to be regularised immediately. If these demands are met, we will allow work to be continued,” says Pradeep Yadav of Patwari village, who had 250 bighas of land in the village.
