LAND ACQUISITION-NOIDA -GREATER NOIDA-RAPE OF THE FARMERS

LAND ACQUISITION-NOIDA -GREATER NOIDA-RAPE OF THE FARMERS

By Robby Sharma- sharmarobby@hotmail.com 07-May-2011

1. For the last forty years, there is open Rape going on of the Farmers of NOIDA-Greater NOIDA, whose Agricultural Lands amounting to Lakhs of acres have been acquired.

2. All these Lands have been acquired under the U.P. Industrial Areas Development Act-1976.

3. I have seen hundreds of Advertisements released by NOIDA & GREATER NOIDA AUTHORITY over the past twenty years and ninety Five percent of them are for Residential Plots, Commercial Plots, Malls, Multiplexes and even Farm Houses (two have been allotted to Shanti Bhushan and his Son).

4. There are hardly any Advertisement for Industrial Plots or for Townships of poor Workers.

5. In fact NOIDA & GREATWER NOIDA have become Posh Suburbs of Delhi and I.A.S. Officers, Judges, Politicians and Land Speculators of all kind are falling over themselves to get Plots there.

6. Today as I write this there is News on T.V Channels about ongoing violent clashes between farmers and Police/Administration, the D.M has been shot, two Policemen And some Farmers are also dead.

7. All these years nobody, particularly the ALL KNOWING MEDIA has, raised this point at all as to how the Industrial Act of 1976 (which is having over-riding effect over all other Acts of U.P. and that is why it has been chosen to make a City to House the Elite of U.P. including the I.A.S Officers(after retirement), Politicians near to Delhi) is being used to make posh Residential City for the Rich & powerful. There are hundreds of Acres of Golf Courses, Formula-One Race Tracks and all other paraphernalia to cater to the needs of the Super Rich Elite Category of Citizens.

8. Name one Industrial City in India, where the rich & powerful & the Elite of India would like to settle in the midst of Smoke emitting Chimneys and hustle & bustle of the poor laborers.

9. Actually Farm Land, within Agricultural Ceiling Limits is not merely Land but the very livelihood of the Farmers and Landless Laborers dependant upon it as such it attracts Article -21 of the Constitution i.e. the Right to life as such the States should never have been given any role for their control by the Constitution and instead only the Central Government should have been allowed to legislate with restrictions to Acquire it for rarest of rarest purposes, where there is no alternative. In the present case, most of the Land Acquisition is taking place to cater to the needs of private Players under the Garb of some public purpose. The Yamuna Expressway is nothing but a clever scheme to benefit the Jai Prakash group and present C.M. of U.P. the fact is that there is a wonderful National Highway connecting Delhi with Agra all that was needed was to connect this to NOIDA if not already connected.

10. It is indeed shameful and the I.A.S Officers and Politicians , who are engaged in the Rape of Farmers by Illegally using the Industrial Act-1976 for acquiring the Land of Farmers at a few hundred Rupees a Meter and then selling it at LAKHS of Rupees a meter and turned the Industrial Development Act in to a tool for their Land Speculation activities, should be sentenced to death and shot Publicly and the Judges of the High Court & the Supreme Court, who have been closing their Eyes to this Illegal Application of the Industrial Development Act for acquiring the Land of Farmers should also be sentenced by the Courts to be Lynched from the nearest Pole. As for the MEDIA, they should be ashamed that they have never ever raised this issue.
