UCIL to Acquire 450 Acres for Tail-Pond Expansion in Kadapa
The Uranium Corporation of India Limited (UCIL) is going to take 450 acres of land in a village called KK Kottala in Kadapa.
This is for a big project to make a new tail-pond, which is like a big pond for waste.
The government says this project is very important for the country.
They promised to give fair money to the people who have to leave their land and homes.
They also said they will help these people find jobs and build new houses.
Some people are worried and have been asking for more help, like better health care and clean water.
The government is listening to these worries and will take about six months to finish the process.
UCIL plans to acquire 450 acres in KK Kottala village for a new tail-pond.
The project is of national importance and monitored by the Central Government.
Villagers will receive fair compensation and employment opportunities.
A land committee will oversee the acquisition process, expected to take 6 months.
