Kerala seeks Centre's help for expedited Outer Ring Road compensation

timesofindia.indiatimes.com

The state government of Kerala plans to approach the central government to speed up compensation payments for land acquired for the Outer Ring Road project. Delays in disbursement have caused financial difficulties for affected landowners. Compensation payments were halted by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) due to the need for environmental clearance for a section of the project. A new committee must be formed to grant this clearance, which could take at least six months. The state government is seeking to resolve the issue quickly. Officials have stated that the environmental clearance process is routine and should not further delay compensation payments.
