Uttar Pradesh Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms (Amendment) Bill, 2015

Uttar Pradesh Government passes UP Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms (Amendment) Bill, 2015. It will ease the present law which says, the District Magistrate cannot give permission for sale of a piece of land if its area is less than 1.26 hectare or after selling a portion of the land the original land becomes less than 1.26 acre.  “There were some clauses in the Act which said that dalit cannot sell his land to non-dalit unless he takes permission from the DM.  The law also said that DM cannot give permission if on the given day the area of the proposed land is less than 1.26 hectares or after selling a portion of the land the original land becomes less than 1.26 hectare. This clause was creating problem in selling land,” the spokesman said. He said that cabinet has decided to amend Section 157 A of the UP Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1950 by which this mandatory clause will be diluted and the dalit can now sell his property to non dalits, he said.

Calling the Bill anti-SC and ST, Leader of Opposition Swami Prasad Maurya (BSP) alleged that it aims at doing away with the provisions that protect these communities and feared that it would push them to become landless labourers. Questioning the need for the Bill, he said it would clear hurdles in the way of land mafia to grab land of the SCs by terrorising them. This is also against the socialist ideology of Ram Manohar Lohia from whom the Samajwadi Party takes inspiration, Maurya said and asked the government to withdraw the Amendment Bill.

The law

• UP's Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1950, protects Dalit land-owners
• It prevents non-Dalits from buying a Dalit's last 1.26 hectares of land

The amendment

• The Samajwadi Party govt in Uttar Pradesh wants to amend the law
• It wants to make it legal for anyone to buy a Dalit's land
