Mayor to hear Land Acquisition grievances on Sept 1

GHMC Mayor Mohammed Majid Hussain on Saturday expressed displeasure over the slow pace of road widening works in the city.

The Mayor also expressed anger over the delay in payment of compensation to those affected due to acquisition of properties for road widening. In order to resolve such grievances, he invited all the affected people to his chambers at GHMC Headquarters on September 1 between 3 to 5 PM. All officials concerned of Town Planning and Land Acquisition Departments too would be available to address their grievances.

Majid Hussain said that the Standing Committee has already delegated powers to Special Deputy Collector, (Land Acquisition) to expedite the Land Acquisition cases. Previously it used to be dealt by Chief City Planner and Land Special Deputy Collector. He appealed to the citizens who are having their grievances pertaining to Land Acquisition and even those who filed cases against the GHMC for compensation to avail this opportunity to resolve their grievances at the earliest.
