Chandigarh: The UT Administration on Thursday announced a compensation of Rs 18.75 lakh per acre for the acquisition of land in Manimajra for the Phase III construction of the Rajiv Gandhi Chandigarh Technology Park.
The landowners, however, were a disgruntled lot after the announcement.
The compensation was announced today for the remaining 168 acres as awards for 104 acres (of the total 272 acres) had already been announced in March 2008.
