The Uttar Pradesh government on Monday said it will soon revise land circle rates in multiple districts, including Lucknow. Prioritizing areas where rates have remained unchanged for years, the process has already been completed in 37 districts since January 1, 2024. The primary beneficiaries of this revision will be farmers, as it will enable them to receive fair compensation for their land during acquisitions under the law. District Magistrates are responsible for setting the minimum price per hectare or square meter for agricultural and non-agricultural land in August each year, it said. The focus aligns with the government’s vision of advancing development projects across the state, according to the statement. The process will be initiated soon in these areas, the government said. Meanwhile, revision is underway in districts such as Shamli, Saharanpur, Mirzapur, Aligarh, Banda, Hamirpur, Agra, Sultanpur, Amethi and Gautam Buddh Nagar.
