Farmer of Gulistanpur village, Greater Noida have once again rejected the Greater Noida authority offers and alleged that the authority is not full filling their demands and trying to mislead them. As they will not allow construction work of dedicated Frat corridor .Western dedicated frat corridor which is being constructed from Jawahar Lal Nehru port, Mumbai to Bodaki railway station, Greater Noida will pass through Gulistanpur village to reach to Bodaki.

Land acquisition in this regard has been dismissed by High Court. Farmers were saying that authority wants to give 67.4 % of compassion given in past with a rate of 850rs per sq meter which is not acceptable to them. They claim that to farmers affected by peripheral highway, district administration had provided them a compensation of 3650rs per sq meter. Hence they will also not provide their land in any compensation less than this. So if authority wants the land they had to provide compensation equal to peripheral highway.

On Friday CEO of Greater Noida Authority Debasish Panda & SSP Love Kumar conducted a meeting with farmers and claimed of settlement. However farmer groups later refused any such settlement and remained persistent at their demands.
