RE:SEZs- A fraudulent scheme
by Sameer Bhagwat on Sep 10, 2007 06:43 AM

SEZ's are not the same as EPZ. An SEZ has most of government services and infrastructure being provided by private players. Why exactly is building an SEZ on fertile land a criminal act? If the SEZ is able to generate several crores per acre as taxes is it not better than a few thousand rupees which can be had by agriculture? The so called innocent farmers are themselves land grabbers in the first place as they were given that land by grabbing from landlords in the 50's and 60's. Also they are getting compensated for their land. How can call that grabbing?
