Abstract

Land is seems to be the life of every individual, everyone’s dreams to land is shelter, security, a livelihood, an identity, a home. Land and a secure home is the only sure way to establish an identity. When people are denied access to land and when their rights ignored by more powerful interests, they are invariably made transient and insecure, which creates vast amounts of individual suffering and widespread social instability. Equitable access to land for the poorest and most marginalised is therefore an essential pre-condition to a stable society and economy. Part IV of the Directive Principles of State Policy also indirectly mandates the government to take measures for land reforms to achieve an egalitarian society. The Entry 20 in the concurrent list also mandates the Central Government to fulfil its role in Social and Economic Planning. The Planning Commission was established for suggestion of measures for land reforms in the country.
