After settling compensation disputes with the impacted farmers, the Greater Noida government plans to dedicate 44 acres of land in the Bodaki area for the construction of a logistics hub and transport hub project, according to officials.
“We will soon compensate the farmers for their houses, clearing the way for the handover of this 44-acre land for these crucial projects. A sum of ₹67 crore will be distributed among the farmers from four villages, whose land is required for the projects,” said Ritu Maheshwari, the chief executive officer of the Greater Noida authority.
The decision was made during a recent board meeting held on June 6, chaired by Manoj Kumar Singh, the Uttar Pradesh Infrastructure and Industrial Development Commissioner. The board approved the proposal to provide compensation to the farmers who had been demanding it for their houses built on the land, officials said.
“The delay in making a decision had hindered the handover of the 44-acre land for the past 6-7 years. However, we have finally resolved this issue, ensuring that the work on the Transport Hub and the Logistics Hub will not be further delayed,” added Maheshwari.
