Maharashtra Land Reforms

Maharashtra Land Reforms aimed to distribute land more equitably and eliminate feudal landholdings. Key measures included ceiling laws to limit land owned by individuals, redistribution of surplus land to landless farmers, and securing tenant rights. The reforms reduced the dominance of large landowners, promoted small-scale farming, and aimed to improve agricultural productivity and social justice. They also established cooperative farming and land settlement programs, fostering a more balanced and fair land ownership system in the state.
