Palghar (Maharashtra), Mar 26 (PTI) The process of distribution of land acquisition compensation for the Vadhavan Port Greenfield Highway Project has started, officials said on Wednesday.
A meeting in this regard was held by District Collector Dr Indu Rani Jakhar.
The compensation amount will be directly credited to the bank accounts of the landowners who have been asked to submit updated 7/12 extracts and mutation records.
In cases where mutation entries are pending, village revenue officers have been directed to complete them on priority and special camps will be organized at Talathi offices and Gram Panchayat offices for this purpose, Jakhar said.
The Collector appealed to landowners not to spend the compensation hastily, but to invest it in safe options such as new land, bank fixed deposits or post office savings schemes.
Considering the increasing risk of cyber fraud, landowners have been advised not to share OTPs or bank details with anyone. Banks and the police department have been directed to conduct awareness campaigns in this regard.
The Collector also appealed to landowners to avoid dealing through middlemen, agents, or brokers, and instead directly contact the Competent Authority or the Talathi office for all procedures. PTI COR KRK
