- (c) & (d) The details are at Annexure.
- (e) National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has deposited compensation amount with the concerned Competent Authorities for Land Acquisition (CALAs). The delay in disbursement of compensation amount by CALAs has been mainly due to non-updation of land records, disputes  viz.  title,  ownership,  share  etc. among  land  owners  and disputes regarding change in land use, type and nature of land, etc.
- (f) For  expeditious  disbursement of  compensation  amount,  matter is regularly  monitored  in  the  High  Power  Committee  Meetings,  held under the Chairmanship of Chief Secretary, Government of Chhattisgarh.
