A TALK BY DEEPAK SANAN
RIGHTS

Incomplete and inconclusive land titling in India poses serious challenges to the conduct of business, and often creates situations of injustice by facilitating dispossession and displacement. This leads to disputed ownership with many cases under litigation for decades.

Listen to the talk (above) by Deepak Sanan where he reviews the reasons for such infirmities in land titles in India, and also explains how the government typically deals with these. He particularly highlights why the government’s approach is insufficient to deal with the issue systematically.
