Why Do Women Farmers Still Lack Access to Agricultural Land Ownership? 38:37

3 years geleden38:37

The 2011 census suggests that four out of five women workers in rural India work in agriculture as owner cultivators or as wage workers. However, women farmers continue to be disadvantaged when it comes to access to agricultural land ownership, compared to men. This, often, further denies them their rightful recognition as farmers which in turn, inhibits them from accessing the welfare benefits that are entitled to farmers. Lack of reliable data and poor policy framework are some of the key factors contributing to the disempowerment of women farmers. In this episode of Land of a Billion, we speak with Shipra Deo, Director of Women's Land Rights at Landesa India and Pranab Ranjan Choudhury, Researcher and Founder Center for Land Governance to understand the various challenges that deny women farmers access to land rights and the hurdles they face while being recognized as a farmer. About The Guests Shipra Deo leads Landesa’s work for gender-equal and inclusive land governance in India. She is passionate about the gender dimension of social development and specializes in designing and implementing gender-responsive strategies and programmes including those related to land. In recent years she has done intensive research on inheritance by women and gendered aspects of land laws. Pranab is a researcher and consultant on natural resources management and governance, with more than 25 years of experience. First as a land use scientist with the Indian Council of Agriculture Research and later as an independent practitioner, he has worked with governments, donors, NGOs, and communities across South Asia, across landscapes, uses, and tenures. He also founded Center for land Governance in 2015.

There are between 60 to 90 million people living in slums across India. Owing to the poor or complete lack of property rights, the slum dwellers across Indian states grapple with issues such as poor access to civic amenities and basic essentials such as water and electricity.

How Inheritance Laws Continue to Hinder Access to Property for Trans Persons 35:28

3 years geleden35:28

The property rights of transgender persons, including their right to inheritance, have garnered little attention. Considering that ‘immovable property’ is the largest and most valuable asset for a significant population in India, access to property plays a vital role in elevating the social standing of persons. This is of particular importance since transgender persons have low income, savings, and little to no access to housing. Inheritance, therefore, becomes an important channel for access to property. In observance of the Trans Awareness Month, through this episode, we aim to shed light on how India’s inheritance laws continue to impede access to property for trans persons. Tune in to this episode as we speak with Karan Gulati, Research Fellow at National Institute of Public Finance and Policy to analyse the laws around inheritance rights of transgender persons and to know how these laws have evolved in India. We also bring voices from within the trans community to understand the many challenges that they face when trying to buy or rent a property.

The Model Tenancy Act: What Does It Mean for India’s Rental Housing Market? 35:04

With the motive of opening up the rental housing markets in India, the Union government passed the Model Tenancy Act, 2021. The MTA aims to provide a framework for transparency in renting property, minimising litigations and disputes between tenants and landlords by laying a clear set of clauses. The act also proposes to set up rent courts and tribunals to solve conflicts in the rental housing market. In this episode, we speak with Gautam Chatterjee, former Chairperson of MahaRERA, the Real Estate Regulatory Authority of Maharashtra, and Sahil Gandhi, an urban and real estate economist associated with the Centre for Social and Economic Progress and a lecturer at the University of Manchester. We discuss the Model Tenancy Act, what it means for the housing market and common man, and its implementations by states. We also discuss the study on ‘India’s housing vacancy paradox: how rent control and weak contract enforcement produce unoccupied units and a housing shortage at the same time’, co-authored by Sahil Gandhi, Richard K Green & Shaonlee Patranabis from the Centre for Social and Economic Progress.

Many parts of India are affected by a number of land acquisition disputes that stretch over years in courts. A 2017 study by Daksh shows that over 30% of the civil cases in India involve land and property disputes, many of which relate directly to land acquisition. Even though land acquisition litigations are expensive, time draining and goes for years without settlement, people are filing cases every day. In this episode, we speak with Leah Varghese, a researcher who has been studying land-related disputes for a long time.

Digital Land Records: How Can it Help The Common Man and Where Does India Stand? 37:30

Land is one of the most important financial assets for Indians, and yet also one of the most disputed. Many of us have experienced the frustration over not being able to access reliable and accurate ownership records or maps of the land we own or wish to buy. Digitisation has been increasingly seen as the solution to improving land records and services in India, as it eliminates redundant labour and human error while simplifying the task of updating records, and also makes it more accessible for the people. The Government of India has been working towards this since the late 1980s, however, the progress on digitisation is yet to meet the mark. In order to measure this progress and identify the areas where states were performing poorly on digitisation, the National Centre for Applied Economic Research (NCAER), under the Property Rights Research Consortium, formulated a framework called the NCAER-Land Records and Services Index (N-LRSI) in 2019 to gauge the extent of these schemes and rank states and analyse their progress. NCAER has so far published two editions of this Index. In this episode we explore various questions and dilemmas around the digitization process in a state and also explore how the N-LRSI pushes states to do better. To what extent has digitization of land records happened and what are the various policies states are working on to make the process easier and inclusive? What does the Index mean for a common man and for the states which are still in process of developing a comprehensive policy on digitization? How has it pushed states to expand their digitization process? We speak with Deepak Sanan, a former civil servant and an advisor for projects on land governance, water and sanitation at NCAER and Vivek Kumar Singh, the Additional Chief Secretary, Revenue and Land Reforms in the government of Bihar.

In our last few episodes, we have dived deep into various issues that concern property rights - from discussing the extent and impact of weak property rights on slum dwellers in Mumbai, Scheduled Tribes across India and tenant farmers among others to attempting to understand the various solutions that we could potentially employ to solve some of these issues. However, an important aspect that remains to be covered, especially when we talk about property rights in India is land reforms. From the independence era till today, our country has witnessed various phases of land reforms. A look back on the history of land reforms is critical in understanding the evolution of our country’s thinking and approach when it comes to property rights. What kind of challenges do we face when it comes to land governance in India? How do these challenges affect agricultural productivity or housing opportunities? Could markets work for land the way they do for labor and capital? What impact might this have on India’s economic trajectory? In this episode of the ‘Land of a Billion’ podcast, we speak with former IAS officer, Dr. KP Krishnan, who is currently the IEPF Chair Professor in Regulatory Economics at NCAER and the Steering Committee Chair at the Property Rights Research Consortium. A former civil servant, Dr. Krishnan has previously served as the Union Secretary in the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship and the Special & Additional Secretary, Department of Land Resources, Ministry of Rural Development among other positions. We talk about the land reforms that India has witnessed over the past few decades and explore their impact on the country’s economy. Tune in to know more!

How Can We Make Indian Cities More Affordable and Resilient? 35:40

As urban areas became the epicentres of COVID-19, it sparked several conversations about the frailties of Indian cities — the lack of affordable housing, the lack of adequate social safety nets, public health risks owing to poor sanitation, and most importantly, the vulnerabilities of informal settlements. To what extent are our urban policies successful in assuring access to housing and services among vulnerable sections? How do the underlying governance frameworks in our cities affect the outcomes of these policies? Can secure land rights catalyse our transition towards more inclusive and resilient urban centers? Why is it that despite many affordable public housing schemes like the Central Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), a large number of houses built under them remain unoccupied? Why haven’t they been able to effectively manage the gaps in affordable housing? Further, in the private housing market, why is it that a large number of landlords intentionally leave their houses vacant despite significant demand for housing? In this episode of the ‘Land of a Billion’ podcast, we try to unpack such housing paradoxes in our cities, and we look at the underlying issues that the pandemic has put forth around effective affordable housing and sustainable urban planning.

How Can Reforms to Land Tenancy Laws Help Farmers? 35:10

With farmers at the forefront of the political discourse today, what are some of the more structural issues which are a part of the larger ecosystem of agriculture in India? For instance, with leasing out of agricultural land prohibited or restricted in most parts of the country - how does this affect the actual tiller of the land? Are they entitled to the same benefits as land-owning farmers? How do these laws affect the agricultural productivity in our country? In this context, we talk about the Model Agricultural Land Leasing Act drafted by NITI Aayog's special cell on land policy in 2016, and how it could help address some of the issues affecting farmers in our country today. Five years from when the Model Act was drafted, we look at what have been some of the broad conversations around the proposed tenancy reforms, including some of the criticisms against the Act.

How Can Forest Dwelling Populations Protect Their Land Rights? 41:27

Forests, regarded both as safeguards of biodiversity, as well as rich reserves of valuable resources, are often subject to unique laws and policies- especially when it comes to forest land. Since the colonial period, India has witnessed a continued conflict between indigenous forest dwelling populations and large resource extraction drives. For the forest-dwelling tribal communities, the forests and their land, beyond being their sources of livelihood are also at the heart of their cultural practices, beliefs and identities. On the other hand, the resource extraction drives from these forests are seen to be critical for the country's economic development. In this context, with complex power dynamics at play, how do forest dwelling populations defend their rights over their land and resources? In this episode we look at the various aspects of a landmark legislation: The Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006, and the role it has played in ensuring inclusive land rights for all Indians.
