	Raigad farmers withdraw anti-SEZ protests after government intervenes
		In a scene that could bring back the horrendous memories of the West Bengal village protesting land acquisition for industry, nearly 5,000 angry farmers blockaded the busy Mumbai-Goa highway for hours Friday to protest the takeover of agricultural land for a special economic zone (SEZ), to be set up by Reliance Group.
		The assurance that the government would withdraw the land acquisition notices, issued to farmers in the district's Konkan region, came in both houses of the state legislature when members raised a point of propriety over the farmer's stir.
		Farmers of 46 villages in Pen, Panvel and Uran tehsils of the Raigad district, where Asia's biggest SEZ is coming up over 14,000 hectares of land, resorted to the road blockade, saying that forced land acquisition was continuing in spite of the chief minister's repeated assurances to the contrary.
