“MLC Kota Srinivas Poojary lacks information about the deal and the allegation he made is false. It is better to gather information before commenting on the issue. In 2005, the then cabinet finalized a deal of lease cum sale and the price was fixed at Rs 90,000 per acre and the process was continued. We have not sold the land for a less price and gone according to the industrial policy,” explained Mr Khader.

New policy for mobile towers

The existing towers close to religious centres, schools and hospitals are given three months time, before that they need to rectify or else its license will be cancelled,” informed the minister
