Sankar Vilas flyover project in Guntur hits roadblock
Guntur: The much-awaited
Sankar Vilas flyover
seemed to have hit a big roadblock as local property owners approached the court and got favourable orders. The court directed state govt not to initiate the work on the project without payment of compensation to the property owners through the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, known as land acquisition Act of 2013.
The officials were also worried to use force to initiate the work in the wake of recent supreme court verdict to demote a deputy collector to the rank of tehsildar, who bulldozed the houses without honoring the high court verdict. Sources said that owners of about 43 properties in Arundelpet area rejected the offer of
Guntur Municipal Corporation
(GMC) to accept the Transferable Development Rights (TDR) bonds in return for cash compensation. The GMC officials tried to convince the property owners to explain that they would get four times to the market value through TDR bonds while the cash compensation would be two times to the official market value if they preferred to enforce the land acquisition Act.
Sources said that official book value in Arundelpet is between 1 lakh and 1.5 lakh per while the selling price in the open market is anywhere between 2.5 lakh and 3 lakh per Since the officials calculate the compensation based on registration department fixed book value, a owner of 100 property would get approximately around 1 crore compensation. The officials have to pay the structure value as well.

All the properties in Arundelpet area are commercial establishments with huge number of workers on rolls. As per the Act, govt had to pay compensation to the workers' rehabilitation and also wage component for at least 18 months. In fact, the construction of new RoB at Sankar vilas junction has been hanging in balance for the past decade. TDP govt estimated that it would require at least 150- 200 crore to complete the project between 2014-19 itself. However, project was not taken up due to the state's precarious financial conditions. After joining the Union cabinet, Dr Pemmasani Chandrasekhar took the RoB issue to his personal prestige and got it cleared from the union road transport and highways minister Nitin Gadkari.
