"The Congress government has announced to regularise the scheme, but along with this, it is also planning to charge Rs 1500 to Rs 2000 per square yard as development fee which is like cheating the people," BJP MLA Rajpal Singh Shekhawat alleged here today.
"We will not tolerate this injustice to the people," he said.
The state cabinet cleared the proposal to regularise the scheme in a meeting yesterday.
"The government is playing in the hands of the land mafia. The BJP government in 1988 and 2003 had fixed Rs 60 for 200 square yard plot and for bigger plots Rs 70 per square yard as regularisation fees, which also included development fees.
Now the Congress government is planning to hike the amount which does not include the development charge," he told reporters at the party office here.
BJP state president Arun Chaturvedi also criticised the government, saying the decision to regularise the scheme was a political decision as the state elections are scheduled for next year.
