In a significant ruling, the High Court has annulled the acquisition of 250
acres of land by the state government for the proposed Pharma City project.
The court’s decision came in response to a series of petitions filed by
affected landowners and farmers who raised concerns over the acquisition
process and the potential adverse impact on their livelihoods. The verdict
marks a major setback for the state government’s ambitious project aimed at
bolstering the pharmaceutical industry in the region. While industry
stakeholders express disappointment at the ruling, activists and local
communities welcome it as a victory for land rights and environmental
preservation. The government may now need to reconsider its approach and
engage in a more inclusive dialogue with the affected parties.
