    People of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi, please do not get fooled by SEZ/MRPL/OMPL. While acquiring land these people promise lot of things and do not fulfill them at all. For instance, SEZ/MRPL/OMPL treat PDF as DOG/BEGGERS. They have all reasons to make sure that these PDF's will not get promised job easily. Even if they provide job they treat them very very badly. They have not considered anyone's previous experience and have inducted them as trainee. This is a really horrible experience. Now they are talking about policy and hundred things while offering job. Why was not it mentioned earlier? No body would have surrendered their land if they had told about their dirty policy. All people there think, only people from North and Tamilnadu are brilliant and rest all are dumbs.

    So, this is my humble request, please do not get fooled again and again. Do not allow KIADB to acquire land. Please unite and oppose. And stick to only one condition – Condition less Compensation, they need to offer Job/Designation prior to acquisition.
