Off the Delhi-Jaipur highway, a group of men gather in the compound of a government rest house to discuss the fate of their land. A week ago, these farmers of Shahjahanpur, two hours south-west of Delhi in Rajasthan's Alwar District were served a final land acquisition notice by the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC). But they don't want to sell. "We'll give up our lives, but we won't give up our land," said Amir Singh, one of the men leading their revolt.
