PICS:Rahul blames Modi for snatching land from farmers

Congress as also several opposition parties are projecting the Modi dispensation as "pro-corporate" and "anti-farmer" for pushing the measure, a view dismissed by the BJP and the government. Congress leaders said that the need for the website which is both in Hindi and English arose as the government was running a systematic campaign of "misinformation" on land acquisition ordinance 2015. "No meaningful information is available on the impact of the law or the reasoning behind it on the website of the Ministry of Rural Development either. In today's day and age, this is simply not acceptable", they said. Ramesh said that the objective of the new website launched by the party was manifold. The first was to provide a data base of all the existing laws on the subject of land acquisition.
