New Delhi The Supreme Court on Tuesday sought reply from the Uttar Pradesh government and the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority on a petition filed by villagers of Ghodi Bacheda seeking quashing of the land acquisition for developing housing projects in several Noida villages.

Farmers of Ghodi-Bacheda have been unhappy with the Allahabad High Court order that asked the authority to pay enhanced compensation and other benefits to the villagers rather than returning their land.
