The land acquisition process in NHAI is governed by The National Highways Act,1956.
The Department of Land Resources (DoLR) is administering the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 (RFCTLARR Act). This Act came into force on 01.01.2014 by repealing the Land Acquisition Act, 1894.
The Amendment Bill passed by the Lok Sabha in March 2015 extended the compensation in accordance with the RFCTLARR Act to the thirteen Acts (The National Highways Act,1956 being one of them) mentioned in the Fourth Schedule of the RFCTLARR Act, 2013.
Thus, NHAI follows the RFCTLARR Act, 2013 (Section 26 to 30) for determining compensation rules for land acquisition.
