Landowners in the villages of Kanhai, Islampur, and Basai, whose properties are being purchased for the Gurugram Metro project, have made several demands regarding their land acquisition. They are requesting alternative plots, higher compensation, and jobs for family members affected by the acquisition. An official from the land acquisition office stated that all requests are being documented for consideration by the land purchase committee, led by the deputy commissioner of Gurugram. One landowner from Islampur indicated a willingness to sell if compensation is aligned with market rates, suggesting ₹2.5 to ₹3 lakh per square yard. The tentative compensation rates have been set at approximately ₹13 crore per acre in Kanhai, ₹26 crore in Islampur, and ₹23 crore in Basai. GMRL is currently working on acquiring about 10,000 square meters of land for the first phase of the metro corridor, with only 8% of the work completed thus far. The urgency to expedite land transfers has been emphasized as construction progresses.
