How much compensation is offered for Bidadi land?

  • More than ₹3 crore an acre, as stated by Chief Minister DK Shivakumar (The South First, 9 August 2026).
  • Instead of cash: 50% of the developed land (The South First, 9 August 2026), or 9,693 sq ft of developed sites per acre (Citizen Matters, 18 August 2026). These differ, so get the option in writing.

What is the latest on the High Court case and protests?

  • Justice R Nataraj directed that no trees be cut and no material moved without the court's permission, and that no coercive action be taken against farmers without its leave. The main petition was adjourned to 29 September (Deccan Chronicle, 26 August 2026). We found no report of what happened at that hearing.
  • The farmers' protest has run for more than 570 days, per S Ravikumar of Bidadi Geleyara Balaga (Vartha Bharati, 24 October 2026).
  • A panel of Prof T N Prakash Kammardi, Prof A R Vasavi and D Umapathy called the acquisition void under the 1987 Act, as cited by the farmers (Vartha Bharati, 24 October 2026). That is a citizens' view, not a court ruling, and the report carried no government response.
  • In July the Chief Minister announced a committee to review the project (The South First, 9 August 2026). We found no report of its findings.
