Imphal, December 05 2011:
Land and Properties Owner's Association NH-37/39 of Tamenglong and Senapati districts have urged the Government to acquire land within specified requirement of road construction in double lane at Km 17 to Km 221 on NH-37 so as to make compensation payment to the affected landowners according to the land acquisition rule of the Government.
The association also warned that it would move the Court and launch agitation if the Government fails to take up any positive action in this regard.
It further said that the portion from Km 0 to Km 17 and Km 221 to 228 have been acquired by the Government so far skipping the portion of Km 17 (Keithelmanbi) to Km 221 (Phaiton) which has a distance of 204 kms.
The association had submitted a memorandum to Union Home Minister P Chidambaram in this regard last month.
