Jindal unit: faux pas in serving eviction notices

Correspondent

VIZIANAGARAM: While majority of farmers were against surrendering lands to Jindal for setting up Alumina unit in S. Kota mandal, some 150 among them who received eviction notices from revenue officials agreed to open zero balance accounts in State Bank of India for getting the compensation amount deposited in their names.

In fact, those who opened accounts and received eviction notices last week were the original assignees and not those who currently possess the lands. District secretary of the Communist Party of India P. Kameswara Rao told The Hindu on Thursday that on verification of notices it was found that officials, as per records, served eviction notices on the original assignees. The assignees were issued D-form pattas in 1965 and the lands changed hands over the past four decades. “The farmers currently tilling the lands have no pattas and they are likely to be denied compensation.”

Mr. Kameswara Rao said that the farmers who received notices would file their objections before the tehsildar on December 1. Meanwhile, revenue officials claimed that eviction notices were served on 344 farmers out of 366 in the four panchayats in the mandal.
