SEZ, a real estate scam in making

The proposed Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Haryana is heading towards becoming a real-estate scam. The government is deliberately withholding information to cover up the selling of the interests of the state and its people. And in its present form, the SEZ to be set up in partnership with Reliance is neither desirable nor beneficial.

Stating this here today, Prof Yoginder Yadav, political scientist and psephologist, questioned the rationale of the government behind the plan to set up SEZs in the state. “We will go to the people to spread awareness on the issue and pressurise the government to come out with information that has been withheld from the public so far”.

The campaign would be spearheaded by the Sampuran Kranti Manch, a socio-political organisation of which he was an executive member, Professor Yadav said. Announcing the launch of the awareness camping from here, he said that awareness rallies and camps would be held in every village of Jhajjar and Gurgaon districts where the SEZs were proposed to be set up. Similar activity would follow in every district of the state.
