But the MCC had failed to pay additional compensation to the farmers, following which the four land losers Shankar, Dakshayini, Vijayashakar and Shivaswamy knocked on the doors of the Court.

The Court which heard the land losers plea, ordered payment of Rs. 8.83 crore as compensation. But the MCC failed to pay the ordered compensation.

Soon as the Court issued attachment order, MCC Commissioner K.H. Jagadeesha made an appeal seeking two months time for payment of compensation.

The MCC Commissioner promised to immediately credit Rs. 10 lakh to the account of the Shankar, following which the attached furniture and other articles at them MCC Commissioner’s office were returned back.
