===What is the history of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894?===
+
The earliest law on land acquisition was the Bengal Regulation I of 1824 enacted to promote British commercial interests. This was replaced by Act I of 1850, by which the provision for land acquisition was extended to Calcutta town. By 1857, various laws on land acquisition were consolidated as Act VI and it was made applicable to the whole of British India. All such land acquisition Acts enacted before 1870 had the drawback of protracted arbitration and legal wrangling leading to delays and heavy costs. Finally, the Act of March 1894 replaced all previous laws on land acquisition and was meant to acquire land for public purpose and companies. This Act made the collector’s award of compensation final unless altered by a decree of a civil court in a regular suit.
+
===How does the 1894 Act operate?===
+
 
+
The government, at the Centre or state-level, is free to acquire any land provided it is for a “public purpose” such as providing public services, improving transport and communication facilities and so on. The state could even acquire land for a non-state body like a company. The government has to give notice to the land owners and compensate according to the “market value” of the property. The land owners can challenge the acquisition, but the government can overrule the objection on the grounds of “public purpose”. Once that is done, the acquisition itself cannot be questioned. The owners can only challenge the compensation decided by the government. In case of urgency, the Act allows the government to acquire the land without hearing any objections to the acquisition.
+
===What have been the major amendments to the Act over the years?===
+
After notifying the acquisition, the government often took too long to declare the “public purpose” for which it was being acquired. Land owners suffered due to such delays as market value would be decided according to the date on which the government publicized its intention to acquire the land. Hence, through an amendment in 1967, the period for justifying the public purpose was fixed at three years. In 1984, Parliament slashed this to one year. The 1984 amendment also ensured that the rate of interest for delayed payment was increased from 4% to 9% for the first year and 15% for the remaining period. It also stated that if land is acquired under the “urgency” clause, 80% of the probable compensation would have to be paid at the time of taking possession.
+
===What consensus have political parties reached on the new Bill?===
+
 
+
It appears that the land acquisition Bill which was introduced in Lok Sabha on September 5, 2011 will probably get passed. Major political parties seem to have reached a consensus on several contentious issues. Firstly, it will become mandatory to get consent from owners of 80% of the land. Also, the compensation will be four times the land’s market value in rural areas and double the value in urban areas.
+
 
+
The act might also include provisions to give 50% compensation to the original sellers if their land is purchased after the introduction of the bill. Apart from this, the government might consider the proposal of leasing the land rather than making it a change of ownership.

The earliest law on land acquisition was the Bengal Regulation I of 1824 enacted to promote British commercial interests. This was replaced by Act I of 1850, by which the provision for land acquisition was extended to Calcutta town. By 1857, various laws on land acquisition were consolidated as Act VI and it was made applicable to the whole of British India. All such land acquisition Acts enacted before 1870 had the drawback of protracted arbitration and legal wrangling leading to delays and heavy costs. Finally, the Act of March 1894 replaced all previous laws on land acquisition and was meant to acquire land for public purpose and companies. This Act made the collector’s award of compensation final unless altered by a decree of a civil court in a regular suit. [edit] How does the 1894 Act operate? The government, at the Centre or state-level, is free to acquire any land provided it is for a “public purpose” such as providing public services, improving transport and communication facilities and so on. The state could even acquire land for a non-state body like a company. The government has to give notice to the land owners and compensate according to the “market value” of the property. The land owners can challenge the acquisition, but the government can overrule the objection on the grounds of “public purpose”. Once that is done, the acquisition itself cannot be questioned. The owners can only challenge the compensation decided by the government. In case of urgency, the Act allows the government to acquire the land without hearing any objections to the acquisition. [edit] What have been the major amendments to the Act over the years? After notifying the acquisition, the government often took too long to declare the “public purpose” for which it was being acquired. Land owners suffered due to such delays as market value would be decided according to the date on which the government publicized its intention to acquire the land. Hence, through an amendment in 1967, the period for justifying the public purpose was fixed at three years. In 1984, Parliament slashed this to one year. The 1984 amendment also ensured that the rate of interest for delayed payment was increased from 4% to 9% for the first year and 15% for the remaining period. It also stated that if land is acquired under the “urgency” clause, 80% of the probable compensation would have to be paid at the time of taking possession. [edit] What consensus have political parties reached on the new Bill? It appears that the land acquisition Bill which was introduced in Lok Sabha on September 5, 2011 will probably get passed. Major political parties seem to have reached a consensus on several contentious issues. Firstly, it will become mandatory to get consent from owners of 80% of the land. Also, the compensation will be four times the land’s market value in rural areas and double the value in urban areas. The act might also include provisions to give 50% compensation to the original sellers if their land is purchased after the introduction of the bill. Apart from this, the government might consider the proposal of leasing the land rather than making it a change of ownership.
