      If your land, serving you and your family of 6, could serve a thousand people instead via infrastructure or urbanization, then yes, I think the government has the right to uproot and resettle you. Obviously, on the condition that you are compensated and helped along, which I know doesn’t happen in either country, but clinging to ideals isn’t helping solve the issue.

        Because local communities should be in control of the land, not some top-down authoritarian state that comes in decides to fuck up your entire life to suit their need for economic growth.
