Ranchi: While former chief minister Babulal Marandi-led JVM-P is critical of the Centre’s fresh decision to grant Rs 14,000 crore special economic zone (SEZ) status to Adani’s proposed energy plant undertaking in Godda, proceeding with their opposition against the undertaking and alleging it anti-people and anti-farmer, Congress MLA (Jamtara) Irfan Ansari on Thursday remarked that farmers and land owners are in favour of the undertaking.
Ansari’s statements come at a time when JVM-P, which is part of the proposed mahagathbandhan of opposition parties — Congress, JMM, JVM-P and RJD, has staked claim to struggle Godda Lok Sabha seat.
Ansari remarked that the folks of Godda are in favour of the undertaking, opposite to what is being projected through JVM-P. “I have broadly toured spaces where land has been obtained for Adani’s proposed undertaking. I am yet come across a single position where farmers don't seem to be keen to section with their land for the facility plant. It is JVM-P which has been claiming in a different way. In reality, there are many who're keen to provide their lands however the situation is such that the corporate isn’t acquiring plots any more,” Ansari said over telephone. The MLA is lately camping in Delhi to fulfill senior Congress leaders to bargain Godda seat for his father Furkan Ansari.
Ansari reiterated that as per the seat sharing formula, parties who either won a seat or got here 2nd in the earlier election has the proper on a selected seat.
“By that logic, Congress has a strong base in Godda and got here 2nd in the Lok Sabha polls in 2014. So, we have now a natural right on that seat, not JVM-P,” he said.
Meanwhile, JVM-P’s Poriyahat MLA, Pradeep Yadav, who led protests against the undertaking, said Ansari lacks working out of the bigger drawback. Yadav claimed that although they try the Lok Sabha election on my own with none coalition, they're hopeful of securing Koderma, Godda and Chatra out of 14 Lok Sabha seats in Jharkhand. “It is right that many farmers willingly gave land for the undertaking. But there are many who had been hostile to it,” Yadav said.
“We are hostile to this undertaking for several causes. For instance, while Rs 42.50 lakh/acre was once mounted as reimbursement for land owners, the federal government lated revised it to Rs 3.15 lakh/acre. It was once simplest after in depth protests through me that the speed was once again revised to Rs 49 lakh/acre,” he said, including, “As per earlier energy sharing agreement with the federal government, the corporate is supposed to provide 25% of the electrical energy it produces to Jharkhand. But now the corporate needs to sell its entire produce to Bangladesh. There are many such violations which we have now been protesting against. An MLA (Ansari) should pay attention to these info.”
