Workshop on Draft Rajasthan Land
Acquisition Bill - 2014 (26th August 2014)
Rajmeru/RVM organized a state level
workshop at Haryana Bhavan, Jaipur on 26th
August to protest against Draft Rajasthan Land
Acquisition Bill, 2014. The motive of the workshop was
to protest the bill and create understanding of
participants on the provisions of this draft bill as
well as to provide comparison of this bill versus
Central Government Land Acquisition Bill, 2013 to all
the participants. Representatives from several people
organization came from all over the state and decide to
send post cards to Government against the bill. This was
also decided in the workshop that proposal will be given
against the bill in upcoming Gramsabha in the state.
 |
It was also decided to give letter to the
MLA of respective areas by clearing the statement that
we think that bringing in such a law is a misfortune for
the people of the State, that we are left with no other
option but to reject it because the 2014 Rajasthan Draft
bill has completely ignored the "he Right to Fair
Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquistion,
Rehabilitation, Resettlement Act, 2013", which came out
of a long process of more than thirty years of debate
and discussion and was finally passed by the Parliament
which replaced the 1894 law. The 2014 Rajasthan Draft
bill not only removes all the provisions that were pro
farmer in the 2013 law but has instead introduced
sections that are against the people. We would like to
reiterate that when there is a central law, then what is
the justification of bringing in a new law which
withdraws the positive provisions. |
