Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Bill 2011


aa Choice for return to Land Bank  / or Owner

 Where unutilised land is returned the State can decided whether it goes to the original owner or to the Land Bank.

aa Threshold for Private Purchase left to Government..

While the Bill requires the discharge of obligations related to Resettlement and Rehabilitation (R & R) even in the case of private purchase provided the purchase exceeds a certain threshold, it leaves the said threshold to the discretion of the State Governments.

aaIn Extreme Cases, Equivalent Amount for Multi-Crop Land..

While the Bill seeks to discourage acquisition of irrigated multi crop or / agricultural land it gives the choice of earmarking how much of such lands should be reserved for protection against acquisition to the States.

Furthermore if no alternative land is available to replace the multi-crop land acquired, the State can instruct the payment of an equivalent amount.

aa R & R Procedure at Discretion of State..


The procedure related to the functioning of the R & R Committee at project-level has been left to the State Government if the acquisition is by the State.
