==Project Stalled==
In April 2012, the Times of India reported that project was stalled in the wake of a decision by the Allahaban high court to quash the company's notifications for the acquisition of 650 hectares of land for the project.<ref>R N Pandey & Rajiv Mani, [http://bit.ly/KuFE8V "Allahabad high court quashes land acquisition for UP plant,"] April 14, 2012</ref>
→Project Stalled: moved section
In April 2013, after four years of protests by local farmers, it was announced they were ready to make a final decision on the plant's future. After opposing the plant, farmers showed interest after the Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation Act (2013) passed in Indian Parliament. The farmers noted this ought to give them legal standing for better compensation for their land.<ref>[http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/karchana-power-plant-farmers-to-take-a-decision/article5351413.ece "Karchana power plant: farmers to take a decision"] Omar Rashid, The Hindu, November 14, 2013.</ref>
