The Economic Survey asks for a “well structured eminent domain law'' to put an end to the constant hold up of land acquisition that is encountered by the industry. It says the government must play the role of a mediator in any new law on land acquisition, so that objections raised by a few farmers don't decide the fate of industrial projects. It says the government must mediate and support farmers who want to sell their land to industry. It makes it clear the farmer who does not wants to sell land should not come in the way of the rights of the farmer who wants to sell.
