Indian Land Tenure Reform

Indian land tenure reform refers to efforts to address land ownership and usage issues among indigenous communities in India. Historically, many tribes faced displacement, unclear land rights, or restrictions due to colonial and post-independence policies. Reforms aim to recognize tribal land rights, simplify ownership processes, and prevent land alienation, ensuring communities have secure titles and control over their land. These measures promote social justice, economic development, and cultural preservation, helping indigenous people access resources and protection under the law. The reforms also seek to correct past injustices and integrate tribal land rights into the broader legal framework.
