The government today said it will soon bring the second draft of the Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation and Resettlement Bill with an aim to make the new law applicable to acquisition of land measuring 50 acres and above for urbanisation purpose.
“We should make some distinction between urbanisation and industrialisation. Both industrialisation and urbanisation should not be treated equally. Now a days, all misuse is happening in the name of industrialisation.
“In the next draft (of the Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation and Resettlement Bill) we are planning to make (acquisition applicable) for land measuring 50 acres and above for urbanisation purposes,” Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh said here.
