Ahead of 2017 assembly elections, the opposition BJP has started cornering chief minister Virbhadra Singh-led Congress government in the state on the issue of poor compensation being paid to the farmers to acquire their land for the four-laning of national highways.
BJP leaders are claiming that the Centre is ready to pay more compensation but the state government is not taking the required initiative to do so, leading to losses for farmers. In Himachal Pradesh, a large chunk of land is being acquired for the four-laning of Kiratpur-Manali stretch of NH-21 and Parwanoo-Shimla stretch of National Higway -22. Ricky Jean Francois Womens Jersey
