Land Policies for Equity and Growth is perhaps the first book of
its kind on land issues, including land reforms, in one of India's
most populous states-Uttar Pradesh. In its 18 chapters-authored by
scholars who have spent several decades researching land issues in
UP-the book sets out land policies to promote agricultural growth
with equity in a state that accounts for a very significant share
of the rural poor of India. The book discusses both old and new
issues. While it examines the historical consequences of the
Zamindari Abolition Act (1950) and the Land Ceiling Legislations
(1960 and 1972) in UP, it also looks at new, emerging issues in
land and agrarian relations, like land use policy (or rather its
absence) in the state. It also discusses the need for modernising
land records, computerising them and, most importantly, ensuring
titling on the basis of ground-truthing actual landownership. This
book attempts to relate land policy issues to the policy discourse
in UP. It is based upon an analysis of well known as well as new
data sources. The authors examine data from old National Sample
Surveys as well as the most recent one (2009-2010). The authors
also carried out primary surveys in the four well-defined
agro-climatic zones of UP, the findings of which are reported in
the book.
