The proposal to set up a centre of
Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology (SCTIMST) in
Wayanad has met with a roadblock with the Revenue Department coming out against
the move to grant compensation to the owners of the Glen Leven Estate citing
that it was actually government land.
The 75 acres of land to be acquired that comes under exempted category is controlled land for which the revenue department says that no compensation need to be given. It is learned that a compensation of about 20 to 25 crores is proposed to be given to the land owners. ''There is no need to give compensation to exempted land when it is acquired,'' highly places sources said.

The report of the Revenue Divisional Office, Manandavadi dated
November 30, 2012, says that an extent of 64.93 acres belonging to Glen Level
estates is declared as excess land by the Taluk Land Board. Once declared as
excess land, it has to be surrendered to the government free of cost. There is
no provision to give compensation to excess land under the land acquisition
Act, they said.
