Bidadi Land Acquisition: GBDA Claims Over 80% Consent Amidst Farmer Dispute

The Bangalore Development Authority (GBDA) has stated that over 80% of landowners have consented to the land acquisition for the Bidadi project. This claim suggests a high level of agreement from those affected by the proposed development. However, farmers involved in the dispute have challenged these figures, asserting that the actual consent rate is significantly lower. They argue that the GBDA's data does not accurately reflect the sentiments of the affected community. This discrepancy raises questions about the transparency and accuracy of the consent process.

The conflicting claims over consent percentages are central to the ongoing dispute over the Bidadi land acquisition.
