The Chhattisgarh High Court on 11 September 2012 annulled the acquisition of thousand acre of fertile land in Raigarh as well as in Champa–Janjgeer districts of the state. It had been taken away from farmers by the Chhattisgarh state government for setting up power station.
Chhattisgarh High Court also imposed a fine in each case which would be given to the petitioners as litigation fee in the case. Justice Prashant Mishra, in his order, observed that the government move to acquire the fertile land of the farmers would not serve its interest.
