Nanjangud farmers firm on reclaiming land acquired for golf course that never materialised

An indefinite stir was launched in March 2021

Almost a year after the launch of an indefinite stir for reclaiming the land acquired for developing a golf course, farmers near Nanjangud have cultivated and raised three crops on a portion of the plot in a show of defiance against the authorities.

An indefinite agitation was launched at Kochanahalli on the outskirts of Nanjangud in March 2021. Nearly 400 acres of land was acquired by private parties from about 200 farmers who were promised a ’permanent job for life’.
