Land acquisition: Digvijay lauds A.P. Government

Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD: AICC general secretary Digvijay Singh on Wednesday appreciated the Rajasekhara Reddy Government for "addressing all contentious issues" raised in the last few months, particularly land acquisition in Hyderabad over which the Opposition kicked up a row.

"The Government is concerned about the issues raised by farmers and others, whose lands are being acquired for major projects in and around the city," Mr. Singh said. In fact, the Government would soon come out with a policy that would help the land oustees to get a decent compensation.

Mr. Singh made this statement after discussing with Chief Minister Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy and APCC president K. Keshava Rao the representation he received earlier from two city Congress MLAs — Janardhan Reddy and M. Sashidhar Reddy.
