Tag: Land Acquisition Bill
Unravelling growth
At 4.87 million km, India has the second largest road network in the world. Transporting over 60 per cent of the country´s goods and serving 85 per cent of total passenger traffic, it is little wonder the Modi Government has accorded the highest priority to developing roads and highways.

He said the new Act renamed as the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Bill, 2013 will come into force only in such cases where the land will be acquired by Central or State Authorities for any public purpose.
Thus spake the industry
The land acquisition bill would lead to further holding up of the infrastructure projects where many projects are already languishing due to the failure of authorities to acquire the necessary land for development.
