In recent times, much debate is on, both inside and outside Parliament, about the rationality of certain provisions of the new land acquisition law enacted by the previous government in 2013. So, how did the law come about?
This book attempts to explain the rationale behind each and every provision of The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act 2013, presented by the then Minister for Rural Development and his Principal Aide. The book is a first-hand account of the challenges faced and the factors that drove the decisions in regulating the State's approach to a resource that is arguably the most important in a land-deficit people-surplus nation.
