CREDAI has opposed the proposed Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation & Resettlement (R&R) Bill, and said with proposed R&R to the farmers the construction industry would become an unviable proposition.
Redefining Public purpose, as suggest by Parliamentary Committee, will impact infrastructure, industrial and township development severely.
Provisions of LA and R&R Bill should not apply to private acquisitions done by developers after direct negotiation with land owners/farmers. Privately negotiated prices, in almost all cases, are much higher than acquisition compensation suggested in the bill.
Strongly opposing the Resettlement & Rehabilitation (R&R) burden on private builders, Pankaj Bajaj, President, CREDAI NCR has said that this will hurt the realty sector and urban development.
