Maharashtra Government Repeals Fragmentation Act in Urban AreasPurandar Airport: Farmers reject ₹ one crore per acre compensation, demand higher rate
Farmers from seven villages in Pune district’s Purandar taluka have refused the Maharashtra government’s offer of ₹1 crore an acre for land acquisition related to the proposed Purandar International Airport project.
Villages Involved
The proposed airport site covers land from the following villages:
Ekhatpur, Khanwadi, Kumbharvalan, Munjawadi, Pargaon, Udachiwadi, and Vanpuri.
Compensation Offer
District administration officials said the state government has offered a compensation package that includes
₹1 crore an acre for the land acquired, which is roughly four times the ready reckoner rate.
Double compensation for on-site assets like houses, borewells, trees, and pipelines.
Developed plots equivalent to 10 per cent of the land acquired for every project-affected farmer.
Farmers’ Response
Farmer representatives have dismissed the proposal on the grounds that the compensation amount is not sufficient, considering the current land value in the area. They are asking for compensation at five times the ready reckoner rate.
They have also requested that further discussions at the village level be held before a final decision is taken.
Government’s Position
The Pune district administration has reiterated that compensation review processes are ongoing and that once an agreement is reached, distribution may commence by the end of November, officials said.
Background
The Purandar International Airport was initially proposed with the aim of decongesting Pune's existing Lohegaon airport and enhancing regional connectivity. The project site was re-identified several years ago, and land acquisition, which had been delayed due to opposition and reviews of the procedure, has been resumed. Status PRESENT Discussions between government representatives and farmers continue. After consultation with affected villages, the administration is likely to finalise the compensation structure and course of land acquisition.
