Land Acqun Bill article in Current EPW

Land Acqun Bill article in Current EPW
Issue : VOL 46 No. 45 November 05 - November 11, 2011


The displaced and their advocates have been campaigning for a law that will limit the  coercive power of the State in taking
over land. The Land Acquisition Rehabilitation and Resettlement Bill 2011 adopts some of the language and concerns from the sites of conflict. But by beginning with the premise that acquisition is inevitable and that  industrialisation, urbanisation and infrastructure will have lexical priority, the LARR Bill 2011 may have gained few friends among those whom involuntary acquisition has displaced, and those for whom rehabilitation has been about promises that have seldom been kept.
