The State government will file an affidavit in the Supreme Court soon to take back six lakh hectares declared as deemed forest land by the Forest Department, Revenue Minister R. Ashok informed the Assembly on Monday.
In his reply to Lalji R. Mendon (BJP) during Question Hour, the Minister said the Forest Department declared nine lakh hectares as deemed forest land and later agreed to return six lakh hectares to the Revenue Department. The government would file an affidavit in the apex court to get back the land to the Revenue Department, he said.
