Pertinent to mention that in its October 4th 2017 communication NHAI had shown its willingness to pay 4 times more compensation to affected farmers of the Ring Road in Budgam district provided state adopted Central Land Acquisition Act of 2013. The counsel for the petitioners Advocate Anil Sethi raised same point before the High Court as the same was raised by M Y Bhat advocate in Srinagar as well in April this year when affected farmers of Budgam , Srinagar and Pulwama had got a relief from the court. Justice M K Hanjura had quoted the same communication in his interim order and directed the Govt to pay compensation to farmers as per Oct 4th 2017 letter of NHAI addressed to DC Budgam.
High Court in its interim order filed by another group of affected farmers from Jammu region through their counsel Advocate Abhinav Sharma had directed J&K Government to file their objections. High Court Justice M K Hanjura had directed the respondents to consider the payment of compensation as per the previous communication of NHAI dated Oct 4th 2017.
Only few weeks back High Court acting Chief Justice Alok Aradhe in his direction had directed that all the record of land acquisition in Chadoora sub division in Budgam be immediately transferred to Sub Divisional Magistrate (SDM) Chadoora so that he can take up the process of land acquisition in his sub division which until now had been undertaken by Assistant Commissioner (Revenue) Budgam.
