"The government feels that this Bill is in interest of farmers, in interest of development and in interest of the poor people. There is no thinking of going back on Land Rehabilitation, Fair Compensation and Acquisition Act," the Union Urban Development and Parliamentary Affairs Minister said.
He said it (Land Acquisition Amendment Bill) is in the larger interest of farmers. "They will be the biggest beneficiaries, unless you want to keep them away from development and exclude them from development," he said.
