Noida Extn: HC delays hearing on 2 villages’ land


The Allahabad High Court, Wednesday, postponed its verdict on the
legality of land acquisition in two villages of the Greater Noida area
popularly known as Noida Extension.

The High Court will announce its verdict on July 26 on the plea of
farmers and villagers from Roja Yaqubpur and Bisarakh Jalalpur
villages, who went to court against the Noida Authority’s decision to
acquire their land.

The court had already cancelled land acquisition in some other
villages of Greater Noida in earlier judgements. And tomorrow the HC
will hear pleas of farmers from Itheda, Haidarpur and four other
villages.

On Tuesday, the High Court had quashed acquisition of nearly 600
hectare of land in Patwari and Dewla villages, falling under Dadri
tehsil of Gautambuddh Nagar district.

The verdicts have come as a big jolt to builders and prospective home
owners. Several builders have launched their housing projects in
affected villages and thousands of people have made bookings in the
upcoming dwelling units, some of which are either in various phases of
construction or in the drawing board stage.

In total, pleas challenging the acquisition of almost 2,000 acres of
land in Greater Noida and surrounding areas, popularly called Noida
Extension, have been filed in the HC. It is believed that around 2.5
lakh flats are to be built on the land in question.


Yesterday’s order came barely a fortnight after the Supreme Court had
struck down acquisition of 156 hectare of land by the state government
in village Shahberi in the area, saying the authorities were
“subserving” private builders in the name of public interest.

The apex court had on July 6 upheld the Allahabad HC order which had
quashed the land acquisition by the Greater Noida authority under the
urgency clause of the Land Acquisition Act and directed that the
property be returned to the farmers.

It had also said the builders should return back the money collected
towards the sale of flats in the village.

The issues being dealt by the HC include acquisition of farming and
other land by the state government without giving farmers and
villagers an opportunity to raise their objections and without being
offered adequate compensation.
