The Lower Suktel Milita Kriyanusthan Committee would resort to agitation if their five-point charter of demands on different issues relating to the Lower Suktel Irrigation Project is not fulfilled within 10 days.
This was announced by Kriyanusthan Committee convenor Lalit Nayak at a Press conference on Sunday.
The demands include equivalent ex-gratia compensation to displaced people as per the 2013 Land Acquisition Act, a fresh survey to identify those who have attained adulthood in the meantime till January 1, 2020, a special package for landless people and homestead lands to all and appropriate measures to solve the problems of displaced people.
Even as 29 villages are going to be affected fully or partially, according to reports, outsiders other than displaced area people have purchased lands.
As revealed by a member of the Kriyanusthan Committee, in village Bijapati, which would be affected and its residents would be displaced, outsiders have purchased around 70 per cent of the land with a view to getting higher compensation.
