Dear Nitinji,
---------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Nitinji,
Farmers are opposing this bill for
the following reasons :
·
Low / Inadequate compensation
·
Once land is sold , not being able to
benefit from the appreciation of land value ,
when the project comes up
·
Private parties bought their land at
low price and then sold it ( mostly to private
builders ) for a whooping
profit
I think there is a simple solution to
the concerns expressed by the farmers . Please consider the following :
·
Each project will be tied to a
specific SPV , created for that purpose only
·
In the first instance , affected
farmers will create a " Cooperative Society "
·
Co-operative Society will issue
shares to each land-donor farmer , in proportion to the QUANTITY / VALUE of the
land donated by him
·
In turn , Co-operative Society will
receive shares in the SPV , equal to the value of the land + a cash
compensation equal to 4 times the value of the land
·
Farmer's shares of Cooperative
Society cannot be sold in open market before 5
years but can be gifted to wife / Children
·
Shares of Cooperative Society
in the SPV itself cannot be sold for next 10 years
·
The " Cash-Value Compensation
" received by the Co-operative Society ( ie 4 times the land value ),
will be deployed as follows :
# to be immediately paid in cash
to the farmers............ 2 times
# to be deposited in the Jan-Dhan Account of
each farmer as FIXED DEPOSIT
( with 10 @ interest
).............2 times
Dear Gadkariji ,
My proposal will ensure :
Ø
Immediate attractive compensation to
farmers
Ø
Recurring income from FD in Jan Dhan
account ( for a sustained livelihood )
Ø
Continued sense of " Ownership
" in the SPV / Project , which will facilitate QUICK implementation
without resistance
Ø
Willing farmers themselves canvassing
/ convincing " Reluctant " farmers
Ø
No fear of private parties benefiting
by appreciation of land value
Ø
A sense of " Enlarged
Participation " thru Co-operative Society representing them on the Board
of Directors of SPV
Ø
Board Representation enabling farmers
to ensure that honest decisions are being taken
PLEASE , GIVE THIS
SUGGESTION A CONSIDERATION
