DISBURSEMENT OF SPECIAL PACKAGE FOR HAAT VILLAGE

Haat is the village affected by land acquisition for the Power House, a surge shaft and access roads. The Haat residents demanded relocation and rehabilitation of the entire village citing continuous disturbance and pollution during construction stage. In November 2007, THDCIL agreed to purchase all private land in and around the Haat village on a willing-seller-willing-buyer basis supplemented by the provisions of THDCIL's Resettlement Policy.

Between November 2007 and early December 2008, a series of negotiations between THDCIL and the Haat villagers failed to reach an agreement on the modalities of the relocation. In June 2009, THDCIL reached to an agreement with Haat Village (except Harsaari Tok). In view of the settlement with the Village Haat and availability of alternative land thereof, it was decided to move Switch yard from Harsari Tok to the alternative land. As on date entire land of Haat (except Harsari) has been acquired. Besides, Negotiated land rate at Rs. 1 Lacs Per Nali, Special Package of Rs.10 Lacs is being paid to resident Households in 03 Installments (1st - Rs. 3 Lacs, 2nd - Rs. 3 and 3rd & Last - Rs. 4 Lacs).
