The farmers of Greater Noidas Bisrakh village have received fresh ammunition in their movement against the Greater Noida Authoritys decision to acquire their ancestral land.
The new lead has come from the Right To Information Act: an application has revealed that the planners do not know of what is to come up on the farmers land.
Applicant Rampal Bhati, a resident of Bisrakh, had filed the RTI on April 16, asking the Authority about its plans for his land which it had wanted to acquire. The Authority has notified the land as illegal without knowing that this is our ancestral land. My father is literate and he used the RTI Act. We tilled our fields and this is all we had, said Karan Singh Bhati, his son.
