Ramesh and other top officials on Monday promised the villagers and farmers of Ranasthalam mandal that the government would ensure the best package under the new Land Acquisition Act-2014 for the people, who would part with their land for the construction of nuclear project.
For the first time, the officials could organise a public interaction meeting at K. Matyalesam village in Ranasthalam mandal, which is likely to be affected by the project, to clear the doubts of the residents on the relief and rehabilitation package.
