Earlier, Gujarat government agreed to retrieve 108 hectares of cattle-grazing land in Mundra's Navinal village after the resumption order from high court. This came after a public interest litigation (PIL) was filed by local villagers challenging the allotment land to the Adani Group company.
The land was allotted to Adani Ports in 2005 by the then Bharatiya Janata Party government for the Mundra Port Special Economic Zone project. At the time, Gautam Adani had paid a consideration of over ₹37.39 lakh along with 30% premium of ₹11.21 lakh for the land.
