The Telangana government today officially withdrew the notification for land acquisition for a pharma village in Lagacherla and Polepally villages in the Vikarabad district.
The government took this decision after strong opposition from the people of the respective villages, backing down due to the agitation of the tribals.
Orders have been issued cancelling the acquisition.
A notification has been issued stating that the land acquisition was being discontinued under Section 93 of the Land Acquisition Act, 2013. The district Collector announced that the land acquisition was being cancelled after opinion polls of the public in the villages.
However, the Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation (TGIIC) has submitted fresh requisition proposals to the Vikarabad district administration for acquiring land for the establishment of a Multipurpose Industrial Park.
Accordingly, district Collector Prateek Jain today appointed the Tandur division Sub-Collector as Land Acquisition Officer (LAO) for acquiring land to set up the park.
A fresh notification will be issued for the establishment of the proposed park in these villages.
