Six years after the announcement of the road project connecting various districts of state with Punjab, Haryana farmers have agreed to sell their land to the government.
The administration has started the process to disburse payment to farmers so that a tender can be issued for the road. Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar had announced the project on November 27, 2015. Under the project, a stretch of 720 m was to be constructed from Shadipur to Majri Patti village. This stretch comes in Haryana. The project could not be completed due to non-availability of land.
To construct the stretch, 0.41 acres of land was needed. The 14 farmers who owned the land have now agreed to sell it to the government.
