Government must not acquire lands beyond the requirement : Pawan

Undavalli Farmers on Sunday met Pawan Kalyan to complain about the forceful land acquisition allegedly planned by the TDP Government. Jana Sena Chief assured Farmers that they needn't be scared of the threats issued by the Government. 'I am by your side. If Governments want to make Amaravati another Basheer Bagh, I am ready to face the bullets fired by the cops. There is no question of accepting forcible land acquisition,' he asserted.

Pawan Kalyan reiterated no Government have the right to acquire the lands against the wishes of the farmers. He pointed out Farmers who offered their lands for Vizag Steel Plant are yet to receive compensation. 'Grama Sabhas should be conducted and lands can be acquired with the acceptance of Farmers,' suggests the Actor-turned-Politician. 

Jana Sena Chief claims he is against the practice of few individuals having authority over hundreds of acres of land. He added, 'Government must not acquire lands beyond the requirement. Compensation for Assigned Lands should be as per AP Reorganisation Act 2013'. 

This is a sad story of Bodigundlapalli in Anantapur district. The village was emptied by the migration of residents in search of livelihood because of continuous drought for 8 years, except Narasimha Reddy couple. Now the population of the village remained just 2 with the couple who did not want to leave their native place under any circumstances. Closed & locked doors appear through out the village now along with the ruins of some of the houses which has seen prosperity once with full of people. The couple request the leaders for the support.
