Issues
Farmer's oppression's
Nangli Wazidpur farmers have been demanding a hike in compensation for their land acquired by the Noida Authority from past many decades.[1] Buoyed by the courts' quashing several farmland acquisitions in Noida Extension, village farmers whose land was acquired eight years ago for development are demanding a share in the upcoming infrastructure. They say they have a right to get free checkups at hospitals and education for their children. Village lands were acquired in 2003 and a less compensation of Rs 329 per M2 was given to farmers.[2]
Illegal sand mining
Illegal sand mining is adding to the plight of the Yamuna river in the banks of whole Yamuna area. It has not only changed the course of the river but also made its riverbed unstable, thus disturbing the biodiversity of the region.[3][4]
