Two agencies are set to finalise the agreement soon, leading to the commencement of the project. Compensation for the land acquired from farmers will follow the BDA Act and the Land Acquisition Compensation Act. Breakdown of Project Costs Out of the Rs 27,000 crore loan, Rs 210 billion will be allocated for land acquisition, while the remaining Rs 6,000 crore is designated for road construction. A senior BDA official noted that the project involves developing a 100-metre wide route. The official further stated that land acquisition has already begun, as reported by the media.
