Summary
India is primarily an agrarian society. More than 60 percent of its population is dependent on agriculture and allied services and dwells in rural areas. In the past couple of decades, India has attempted to shift away from its rural-agrarian base toward an urban-industrialized economy. In this journey, it encountered many challenges, but none remain as severe and persistent as the ones related to the assignment and balancing of land and property rights. Land governance in India remains historically complex, politically sensitive, and economically inefficient. In recent times, state governments have attempted proactive measures to reform the sector and bring greater efficiency to land markets. Despite the exigency of these reforms, issues surrounding equity, abuse of power, and nexus among powerbrokers remain central and require thorough analysis.

The farmers’ protest against the Centre and seeking the abrogation of 3 farm laws continued in Mysuru on Saturday.
While one group of farmers was led by Kurubur Shanthakumar of Karnataka State Sugarcane Growers Association, the other group comprised members of Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha, Hasiru Sene and Dalit Sangharsh Samithi.
The farmers led by Mr. Shanthakumar blindfolded themselves in front of the Gandhi statue opposite the court complex and sat on a dharna to draw attention to what they called the conspiracy of the government to break the farmers’ agitation.

Former Supreme Court judge V. Gopala Gowda has termed the Karnataka Prevention of Slaughter and Preservation of Cattle Ordinance, 2020, brought out by the State government “unconstitutional” and violative of the fundamental rights of the farmers.
Addressing a gathering at the State-level conference on the law, organised by the Karnataka Raitha Sangha and Hasiru Sene, he said the Ordinance has been brought in an “emergency manner” by sidelining the State legislature. He said the State government taking the route of Ordinance was “nothing but backdoor tactics.” The Governor should have considered these factors before signing the Ordinance, he said, and added that he supports the legal fight against the “unconstitutional Ordinance.”
