Police had made elaborate security arrangements to prevent any violence.

The farmers are demanding enhanced compensation, 10 per cent developed land, resolution of abadi (arable) land and other rehabilitation benefits.

"Till our demands are resolved we will not allow construction works even though NCRPB (National Capital Region Planning Board) has given approval to Greater Noida Master Plan 2021," said farmers' leader Inder Nagar said.
