    Solution

    Under Section 2(2) of the Land Acquisition Act, 2013, consent of at least 70% of affected families is required for land acquisition in PPP projects, and 80% consent is required for private projects. This provision ensures that affected persons have a say in the acquisition process, especially when the land is acquired for profit-driven ventures. • Consent is not required in cases like land acquisition for defense or infrastructure by the government directly. • The Act emphasizes transparency and fair compensation.
