July 19: Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan ending all controversies related to his farmland acquisition in Uttar Pradesh and Maharastra has yesterday announced to donate those properties.

According to a leading daily news channel, Bachchan has decide to donate his 4.5 bigha land located in Barabanki, Uttar Pradesh, to the Gramasabha of Daulatpur village and the land in Pune to the Maharastra government.

Reportedly the actor has sent letters to the chief minister of UP and Maharastra regarding his decision though officials from both the states have confirmed that they have not received any letter from the actor till now.

During the previous Uttar Pradesh government the actor had bought a state-owned farmland but the Faizabad court termed it as illegal in terms of some forged documents submitted by the actor that certified him as a farmer. Similarly in Pune, Bachchan bought a 20 acres land that was termed illegal under Maharastra Agricultural Lands Act.

This illegal possession of land comes into the picture when some people belong to those particular places filed petition in the Faizabad and Allahabad High Court stating that the agriculture land in Barabanki belongs to the Grama Panchayat and hence meant to be distributed among the poor villagers.

Reportedly, Bachchan has also sent letters to the Sarpanch of Daulatpur village and the Divisional Commissioner of Pune regarding his wish to donate those lands.
