The Noida Authority will provide five per cent developed land to farmers in a period of three months, officials promised at a meeting with residents of 54 villages on Saturday. With this, the Authority was able to defer an agitation by farmers from the region, which was scheduled to begin on Sunday.

In a meeting that extended for almost one-and-a-half hours on Saturday, Authority officials promised villagers that 5 per cent land would be provided to them soon. They also agreed to bring out a special scheme for farmers whose lands were acquired between 1976 and 1997.
