As Medha Patkar waited outside meeting room, BJP MPs part of parliamentary panel started calling her anti-national and accused her of stalling development, it is learnt.
Upholding 2010 Orissa HC order quashing land acquisition, SC said govt move left 6,000 families landless & rapped its disregard for environmental impact as land abuts wildlife sanctuary.
The SC bench was hearing a batch of 600 petitions related to land acquisition that needed to be adjudicated on the basis of legal principles enumerated in a March order.
States that have brought in their own land acquisition laws or propose to do so will be asked to align them with the 6 March SC verdict on compensation clauses.
Two SC benches gave opposite judgments on Section 24(2) in 2014 & 2018. Now, a 5-judge bench picked to settle matter is being challenged. Hearing begins today.
It is a touchingly funny spectacle, where every senior leader wants to be loved like Atal Bihari Vajpayee, but is beginning to speak the language of Modi of 2007, if not 2002.
RJD, once a prominent representative of Mandal politics, now finds itself in a political era where welfare, good governance, and new aspirations are overshadowing old caste equations.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
Medha Patkar has always acted against national interests. She has always caused mischief against developmental projects. Due to her idiotic activism, projects were delayed by several years resulting in cost overruns of thousands of crores. This was taxpayer’s hard earned money going down the drain because of stupid activism.
