Coimbatore: MP P R Natarajan, along with farmers, staged a protest in front of Bharathiar University on Tuesday, demanding the state government to provide enhanced compensation to the farmers whose land was acquired to set up the varsity in 1982. The MP warned that the farmers would enter the university premises with their cattle in January, if the government didn’t settle the issue.
“In 1982, the state had acquired about 950 acres of agricultural land from more than 400 farmers at Bommanampalayam, Kalveerampalayam, Navavoor and surrounding areas to construct the university by paying them Rs 3,000 to Rs 5,000 per acre. “When the farmers sought an increase in the compensation amount, the government asked them to move the court. Subsequently, the farmers sought the intervention of the high court and the judgement came in their favour in 2005,” said VP Elangovan, state president of Tamil Nadu Farmers’ Association.
