MLA for industrial town at Panjokhra
Ambala, November 19 According to sources, around 1,852 acres of land at Panjokhra and five other villages has been exempted from acquisition for the setting up of the IMT as the government could not issue the notification under Section 6 of the Land Acquisition Act even after one year has gone since the notification was issued under Section 4. Talking to The Tribune, Sharma said the IMT was a major project for the industrial growth in the district. However, he wanted that the most fertile and commercial area of the land should be exempted and farmers should be offered sufficient price for their land. He said the project for a special economic zone (SEZ) to boost industry in the town was approved earlier by the government earlier to set up an industry similar to the one set up in Gurgaon. According to the Land Acquisition Act, if a notification under Section 6 was not issued within one year of the issuance of the notification under Section 4, the prior notification lapses automatically. The government had issued notification under Section 4 of the Act, but notification under Section 6 had been put off. Sharma said the proposed IMT would include industry-producing scientific goods, instruments, yarn, food products, beverages and “mixie” industry for which the town was once famous.
