Top priority to rehabilitation
The Chief Minister emphasized that proper rehabilitation of farmers and citizens affected by the project will be accorded the highest priority. With the objective of providing long-term security to farmers and their future generations, compensation higher than the original land value will be considered. Therefore, the State Government has decided not to rely solely on ready reckoner rates, but to finalise land acquisition rates through negotiations.
In earlier CIDCO projects, benefits of 22.5 percent were provided, and the government is striving to offer even higher benefits for the Purandar Airport project.
Rehabilitation of affected families will take into account family structure, with additional space for adult children. Suitable solutions will also be worked out for issues related to sisters’ shares. Special measures will be explored for small and landless farmers. The Chief Minister noted that this will be the first project in the State where compensation will be provided along with alternative land.
