Kalyan: Thousands of people who live in 2,000 rooms, which are influenced by the Vadodara-Mumbai toll road project, from three villages in Kalyan Taluka from the Thane District struggling for compensation.
The process of land acquisition for Jalan Raya Vadodara-Mumbai passed through Balyani Village, Ubarni and Nandap.
The affected people, who have bought rooms at Chawl in this area for a decade ago, struggling for compensation.
Residents claim that the authorities pay compensation to land owners instead of paying them, even though the survey has their name.
In accordance with a survey conducted by the Department of Public Works, residents who are affected because the project will receive 7-8 lakh RS compensation per home.
However, landowners who receive this money now offer people affected by only Rs 4 Lakh.
The owner has sold their land by building rooms many years ago.
Residents have decided that if they don’t get the right compensation, they will not leave their homes for this project.
Previously, MLA Ravindra Phatak and Mla Jagannath Shinde had raised the same problem in the state assembly where the state had directed authority to compensate for those affected in the project.
Increasing this problem now, Local Corporator Namita Mayur Patil has warned that if in the next 15 days, compensation is not given to affected people, he will hold a hunger strike outside the Kalyan Development Office (SDO) in Kalyan.
When asked about this problem, SDO-Kalyan Abhijit Bhande Patil, “Those who have the right property documents, we have compensated them.
But those who have brought property on notary paper documents, we have provided compensation to the landowner Placing the condition that they will give money to the owner of the house.
If the landowner does not compensate for residents, then I will meet them and try to solve this problem.
