Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Land Acquisition : Nine Years to Nurture ?

 Land Acquisition : Nine Years to Nurture ?

============================
Context :

Rajasthan set to be first State in India to bring in an innovative way to acquire land  ..  BL  … 06 Oct 2024

Extract :

Rajasthan is all set to become first State in India to bring in land aggregation through a legal mechanism. This aims to assist industries and help the farmers.

--------------------------------------
Some 9 years ago , on this subject, I sent following email to Shri Nitin Gadkariji :

Ø  Land Acquisition Solution  ..  05 May 2015

https://lnkd.in/dyNpb9RZ

======================================
My proposal will ensure :


>    Immediate attractive compensation to farmers

>    Recurring income from FD in Jan Dhan account ( for a sustained livelihood )

>    Continued sense of " Ownership " in the SPV / Project , which will facilitate
QUICK implementation without resistance


>    Willing farmers themselves canvassing / convincing " Reluctant " farmers

>    No fear of private parties benefiting by appreciation of land value

>   A sense of " Enlarged Participation " thru Co-operative Society representing
them on the Board of Directors of SPV

>   Board Representation enabling farmers to ensure that honest decisions are
being taken

PLEASE , GIVE THIS SUGGESTION  A CONSIDERATION

=======================
When I asked ChatGPT to compare the proposed Rajasthan Law with my 9 year old suggestion , here is how it commented :

Here's a tabulated comparison of the proposed Rajasthan Land Acquisition Law and your 2015 suggestion:
===============================
Comment:

The proposed Rajasthan Land Acquisition Law aligns closely with your 2015 suggestion in terms of :

Ø  prioritizing farmer compensation,
Ø  long-term benefits, and the
Ø  aggregation of land for development.

However, the law centralizes control through a government authority and a
defined legal framework, while your proposal empowers farmers directly
through cooperatives and SPVs.

Both approaches have merit, and Rajasthan’s law could incorporate
elements of your cooperative model to further enhance farmer
participation and ownership.
