Settlement between Patwari Farmers and Authority have given Hope to Buyers
Farmers of 22 villages in Greater Noida are waiting for word from the court on Wednesday. This includes many in Patwari. Though there are a few who have approached court, several have not accepted the enhanced compensation as they are waiting for word from the court on the Patwari case. Farmers will consider an appeal if there is an unfavourable ruling. Investors and builders too are anxiously waiting for news from the court. R P Tyagi, president of the Noida Extension Flat Buyers Welfare Association, said that the settlement between the farmers and Authority had given them hope.
Greater Noida Authority CEO Rama Raman said that Authority had filed 731 affidavits confirming a deal — some 1,400 farmers were opposed to the compensation offered earlier by the Authority. “We have succeeded in filing approval from more than 50 per cent of Patwari farmers who are willing to accept the enhanced compensation decided by the Authority in consultation with farmers. We are paying more than what we paid to other villages of Greater Noida. The effort is to save the interests of other parties who have invested in the region,” Rama Raman said.
With hearing on petitions challenging land acquisition in Greater Noida scheduled for Wednesday, the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority on Tuesday submitted in Allahabad High Court more than 700 affidavits confirming a settlement between the Authority and residents of Patwari.
“We are very hopeful that the court will rule taking into consideration the interest of every investor. We have been accepted by court as one who can intervene in the case as our interests are also affected,” Tyagi said. Meanwhile, Noida farmers from 54 villages have held a panchayat to work out a strategy to gherao the Noida Authority.
