(12) Kerala Government is under the wrong notion that rehabilitation means providing 5 cents of marshy land at Kasargod 580 kilometers away without electricity and water for Trivandrum evictee and that also after 5 or 10 years and resettlement is something they never heard of. Cases are there where both are not received after 30 years also as in Naval Academy eviction. As such it is only Your Good Self Modiji, who can come to the rescue of the oppressed in Kerala.

(11) Whenever for a development program Centre entrusts the work of land acquisition to Kerala State and transfers fund for the purpose, my humble request is that the Centre should monitor the work of the State. Whether the funds are properly utilized for this purpose only and only the required land is acquired and no land mafia is involved. It should also ensure that eviction is done only after resettlement and rehabilitation are made. Contd…(12)

(10) How eviction is done in Kerala for development programs and what happens to the evicted people is very well depicted through the attached video. After forcible eviction with the help of police without resettlement or rehabilitation the evicted families are forced to live in temporary tents and sheds even in heavy rains without toilet and bathroom facilities.

(9) If development means benefits for the people at the expense of others, then that cannot be termed development. Of course people are prepared to sacrifice for development but not at the cost of being a homeless beggar. Here after making thousands of people homeless, the Government distributes land to ten people on Independence Day and with the help of media announces that land was distributed to one lakh homeless people.

(8)Whenever Centre demands land for development activities, here the Government very willingly obliges it. More than required land is acquired and excess land goes to land mafia for a commission. This is not the evictee’s lookout. Their only demand is proper resettlement and rehabilitation in the vicinity of their eviction; otherwise the jobs of parents and education of children will be affected. But previous incidents in Kerala show that the Government is least bothered about this. Contd….(9)

(7)Future evictions will be in Aranmula Airport Project, additional project of Naval Academy, 8 Greenfield Roads of Kannur Airport, Bullet Trains etc. The Government of Kerala should provide rehabilitation and resettlement benefits first and then only evict the people. I humbly request the Honorable Prime Minister to do the needful in this matter and ensure that the Government of Kerala does not cheat the people again in the name of development. Contd…..(8)

(6)The details of Container Terminal and Naval Academy evictees not being provided rehabilitation are in the links given below. I feel that the Honorable Prime Minister should do the needful in this matter and see all evictees are provided rehabilitation.

(5) The displaced families of Vallarpadam Container Terminal and Naval Academy are to be provided housing facilities first. Unless and until the presently displaced families are not provided proper housing facilities the Government of Kerala should not acquire any more land in the name of development. I think that the Centre can pressurize the State in this matter. For any further development activities the Government of Kerala should provide rehabilitation first and then only evict people.

(4)It is not that the Government of Kerala cannot do it. They can if they want to. There are vacant lands which has to be developed not by individuals but a Government can. They should provide electricity, water, internet facilities along with Government Hospitals/Dispensaries, ESIC Hospitals/Dispensaries, private hospitals, markets, departmental stores. Form a township and a multistorey building in the vicinity can provide flats of 1000 square feet to all displaced persons. Contd….(5)
